TÜV AUSTRIA LABS

Company

TÜV AUSTRIA LABS consists of five testing laboratories located in Greece and Cyprus. The company adheres to internationally recognized quality management systems, complying with the EN ISO 9001:2015 standard. Laboratory analyses are performed in accordance with the ISO 17025:2017 standard and are accredited by ESYD and KOPP. The scope of accreditation has significantly expanded in recent years.

Our laboratories are recognized by the International Olive Oil Council (COI), the European Federation of Edible Oils (FEDIOL), and the International Dairy Federation (FIL-IDF). In addition to conducting a wide range of laboratory tests (chemical, immunochemical, molecular, and microbiological), we are also involved in trading quality control equipment and consumables for food businesses, private laboratories, research institutions, and other laboratories (including those focused on nutritional supplements and cosmetics).

As exclusive representatives of international companies, we specialize in kits and systems for the rapid diagnosis of various analytical parameters from Neogen, 3M, and Gold Standard Diagnostics.

In our Cyprus laboratory, we have a department dedicated to the production of Certified Reference Materials (CRMs) and Special Salt Mixtures (QuEChERS), which are exported to over 50 countries, meeting the needs of various private and public laboratories.

Founded in 2005 in Rethymno, Crete, TÜV AUSTRIA LABS expanded with a second laboratory in Athens at the beginning of 2008. By the end of the same year, our Cyprus laboratory began operations, including the production and distribution of CRMs and QuEChERS. Since early 2020, we have operated a fourth laboratory in Thessaloniki, marking a significant expansion into the rapidly growing food industry market in Northern Greece.

In early September 2022, TÜV Austria Hellas proudly announced the acquisition of Food Allergens Labs. Now operating under the name TÜV AUSTRIA LABS, we employ 50 highly specialized scientists across laboratories in Athens, Thessaloniki, Rethymno, and Nicosia, processing more than 25,000 incoming samples annually and conducting over 1,100 accredited tests.

All TÜV AUSTRIA LABS laboratories are equipped with the latest laboratory equipment at all operational levels (e.g., LC-MS/MS, GC-MS/MS, HPLC, RP-HPLC, ICP OES, GC-ECD, GC-FID, UV-ViS, PCR, Real Time PCR, Elisa Reader, Soleris, MDS, etc.). The use of this equipment requires specialized scientific personnel to ensure proper operation, accurate evaluation of results, and prevention of unwanted interactions or errors.

We take pride in the exceptional scientific expertise of our team. Combined with their extensive professional experience and ability to analyze over 15,000 samples annually, we are leaders in the field of food analysis, nutritional supplements, and more. Our staff’s continuous involvement in national and European organizations such as EFSA, CEN, BEUC, TEE, ELOT, ESYD, and their presence at major international events like exhibitions and conferences, further demonstrates our commitment to excellence.
