Detection of irradiated food products

The labelling of irradiated food products is mandatory (Directive L66/16 (1999). Aerial has the technical and scientific means and skills to meet the demands of manufacturers and control laboratories to verify the compliance of their food products with these regulations.

Our activity

Aerial Implements the following standardised methods for the detection of ionised foods

AERIAL is approved by DGCCRF for irradiated food product detection.
