Alkemist Labs, a third-party testing lab for food, beverage, nutraceutical, and cosmetic industries, released a guidance document to help companies choose a third-party testing lab by filling in information gaps.
 
Partnering with contract labs is a key part of meeting regulatory requirements for many brands and manufacturers, and it’s important for companies to ensure they’re equipped to make this important decision, Alkemist reported.
 
Some aspects of the lab vetting process include testing requirements, understanding legal repercussions of inadequate testing, what qualities to look for in a lab, a qualifications checklist, the testing roles of contract manufacturers versus brands, and other aspects of the selection process.
 
Rend Al-Mondhiry, partner at Amin Wasserman Gurnani, LLP, and Len Monheit, CEO of ITC Strategy, contributed sidebars in the document.
 
“There is a good selection of labs that offer high-quality services, not only ours.  Yet, for years I watched as brands struggled to evaluate labs and, in some cases, chose terrible labs with publicly documented quality deficiencies,” said Elan Sudberg, CEO of Alkemist Labs. “I couldn’t find an industry guidance anywhere, so we decided to develop one. We hope that this guidance will help the companies that want to do things right choose good labs.”
