Texture analysis to optimise product formulation

Getting the perfect texture and obtaining enjoyable "mouthfeel" or texture in the mouth that is consistent is vital for quality control in finished processed foods.

Scientists at IFR Extra are experts in understanding the textural qualities of food products. We use specialist knowledge and testing capabilities (instrumental and sensory) to help food processing companies formulate new products and improve existing products.

“We highly recommend IFR extra for texture analysis” Harry Schimanski, Stable Micro Systems.
