In 2014, we joined forces with the Tentamus Group of world­wide labo­ra­to­ries, making us a power­house inter­na­tional lab service.

We service a large range of clients, from indi­vidual consumers to mid-sized agri­cul­tural producers to Fortune 500 compa­nies. Addi­tion­ally, since we have USDA vege­ta­tion and soil import permits, we are fully set-up to serve our over­seas clients. With three primary service lines covering a wide variety of analyt­ical services:

  • Micro­bi­ology
  • Nutri­tion labeling
  • Water
  • Waster water
  • Metals
  • Pesti­cide residue-related testing

We’ve got you covered!

Quality Assurance

Our quality assur­ance policy is imple­mented and enforced through the unequiv­ocal commit­ment of manage­ment, at all levels, to the Quality Assur­ance (QA) prin­ci­ples and prac­tices outlined in our compre­hen­sive quality assur­ance ethic programs. Our policy is to use good profes­sional prac­tices, to uphold the highest quality of service and to comply with the TNI and ISO/IEC 17025:2005 standards.

It is the objec­tive of the QA program to assure that the data gener­ated is trace­able, tech­ni­cally compe­tent and legally defen­sible. We are committed to consis­tently provide our customers with data of known and docu­mented quality that meets their requirements.

The primary respon­si­bility for quality rests with each indi­vidual within the lab. Every employee must ensure that the gener­a­tion and reporting of quality analyt­ical data is a funda­mental priority. All employees are trained annu­ally on ethical prin­ci­ples and proce­dures surrounding the integrity of the data gener­ated. Columbia Food Labs also main­tains a strict policy of client confidentiality.
