Food product quality disputes
An independent examination helps document the goods' actual condition and separate questions of quality, condition and value from questions of safety and legal assessment.
Which questions are addressed
Product condition
What signs and defects are present, how do they manifest themselves and do the submitted materials allow them to be described objectively?
Conformity with documents
Do the established characteristics conform to the labelling, specification, contract, accompanying documents or applicable regulatory and technical documentation (НТД)?
Causes
Can the combined data link the change in condition to storage, transport, packaging or other handling conditions?
Pricing
What is the value of the goods or batch as of the specified date, and how does the object's condition affect its saleability?
Who it is suitable for
Consumers, suppliers, manufacturers, trading organisations, warehouses, carriers, insurance companies, party representatives and courts.
