Food

TNO is the only organisation within the EU capable of covering the entire spectrum of consultancy and research for customers: from process technology and concept development to safety, health claims and registration. Sometimes TNO supplies the missing piece of the jigsaw and at other times TNO is an integral part of an entire project, from strategy to implementation. TNO contributes to:

• Developing new food and processing techniques
• Evaluating the safety of new ingredients
• Supporting the registration of novel and functional foods
• Laying the foundation of claims for healthy ingredients
• Improving the safety and shelf life of products
• Developing high-tech detection and analysis techniques

We innovate and extend our expertise by actively investing in scientific developments. We operate, just like our customers, internationally. We have offices in the Netherlands, the USA and Japan. Our research is performed predominantly in laboratories in Zeist, Leiden or Eindhoven.
