Science and analysis in the service of safer food

Corporate Sustainability Responsibility is a fundamental pillar of Analytica Alimentaria's strategy, reflecting the company's commitment to environmental protection, the efficient use of resources, and the continuous improvement of its operations. This commitment is put into practice through initiatives aimed at reducing the environmental impact of laboratory activities, fostering a culture of responsibility among employees, and promoting projects that support more sustainable growth. Beyond minimizing its own environmental footprint, the company contributes scientific expertise to help build a food system that is safer, more efficient, transparent, and resilient.

Analytica Alimentaria combines scientific expertise, regulatory knowledge, and advanced analytical capabilities to help the food industry produce safer and more sustainable products. Through reliable testing and technical support, the company strengthens transparency across the food supply chain, facilitates market access, and builds trust among customers and consumers.

Energy Management and Self-Consumption

Efficient energy management is one of the company's main sustainability priorities. Analytica Alimentaria continuously monitors the impact of its investments in renewable energy by analysing on-site energy generation and consumption across its facilities.

As part of this commitment, the company has installed photovoltaic solar systems at its two laboratories: Kleinmachnow (Berlin, Germany), operational since October 2023, and Almería (Spain), in operation since August 2025. These installations have progressively reduced dependence on the conventional electricity grid, increased self-consumption, and improved energy self-sufficiency, contributing to a lower environmental footprint and more responsible resource management.

Together We Innovate: Sustainability Driven by People

Sustainability is embedded in Analytica Alimentaria's corporate culture. During 2025 and 2026, the company launched the internal Together We Innovate challenge to encourage employees to develop innovative solutions with a positive impact on both the organisation and its environment. A total of ten projects focused on continuous improvement, resource optimisation, and environmental impact reduction.

Among the most notable initiatives was "The Future Is Not Disposable", which promoted waste reduction through responsible practices such as the use of reusable bottles. Another project, "GC Liners," demonstrated how laboratory sustainability can be enhanced through the safe and efficient reuse of selected laboratory consumables. This initiative successfully reduced waste and optimised resource use while maintaining the high standards of quality and reliability required in analytical activities.

These initiatives highlight one of Analytica Alimentaria's key strengths: integrating sustainability directly into its scientific and technical laboratory activities by developing solutions that reduce environmental impact without compromising analytical quality.

Next Steps: Measuring the Carbon Footprint

As part of its environmental strategy, Analytica Alimentaria will launch a Carbon Footprint calculation and management project to quantify the emissions associated with its operations and identify future improvement opportunities. The results will help the company reduce emissions in areas such as energy consumption, logistics, and materials management, while also strengthening transparency with customers and other stakeholders.

Building a More Sustainable Food Future

The initiatives implemented in recent years reflect Analytica Alimentaria's commitment to a growth model based on sustainability, efficiency, and innovation. The adoption of renewable energy, the active involvement of employees, and the upcoming Carbon Footprint assessment demonstrate a clear commitment to generating measurable and lasting positive impact.

Above all, Analytica Alimentaria's greatest contribution lies in its role as a trusted scientific partner for the agri-food sector. Through reliable analytical services, technical expertise, and extensive experience in food safety, the company helps producers and food businesses move towards a production model that is safer, more transparent, and more sustainable, strengthening consumer confidence and contributing to the future resilience of the food supply chain.
