We provide solutions for Analytical Laboratories working with Farms and Feed producers. Examples are Flour producers, Mills, Agricultural producers and Farms, Fruit and Nut farms, Oils and Syrups producers and Tobacco farmers. Protein measurements are common but also other analyses such as Fat determination and extraction of Oil.

olive production
Fast and accurate analysis on-the-spot is a key tool for olive millers to extract as much oil as possible from the olives and improve production profit. Our instruments are accurate and easy to use.
Grain collection and trade
The value of grain and oilseed is determined by its characteristics, and only by identifying and segregating qualities can the total value be optimized. Whether you trade in wheat, barley, corn, soybeans or other products, rapid and accurate analytical results will help you make the best business decisions.
Oilseed milling
Having worked with major companies within the industry for many years, Perten Instruments has gained great experience in how to help oilseed millers work more efficiently.
Seed breeding
It all start with breeders. The development of new cultivars is perhaps the most important means of improving quality traits and yields, and dramatic improvements have been achieved in the “green revolution”.
Petfood
Producing petfood isn’t easy. It has to look good to the consumer, it has to taste good to the pet, it has to meet nutritional requirements, and it has to be produced in a profitable way.
The solution to these seemingly contradicting requirements is the use of advanced analytical equipment. Perten Instruments has worked with petfood companies for many years and has the necessary tools.
With these tools you will be able to determine parameters such as moisture, protein, fat and more in just a few seconds. Our analyzers are fast, accurate, rugged and easy to use, and typically pay back their investment cost in less than a year.
Aquafeed analysis solutions
Aquafeed producers are faced with the difficult task of producing to the same specifications week after week, with profitability, as raw materials and their prices constantly change. The only way to succeed is to have full knowledge of your raw materials and your process. Perten Instruments offers analysis equipment for rapid testing of finished feed as well as all types of ingredients. Make the right formulations, test starch characteristics, control your drying, and make sure you meet finished feed specifications.
On-line and Lab NIR Tobacco Analysis
Accurate NIR analysis of moisture, oven volatiles, nicotine, sugars and more – from leaf processing to cigarette production
Perten is a leading supplier of advanced NIR instruments for on-line and lab use. Our analyzers are used by global tobacco companies worldwide for process control and quality control of all types of tobacco products.
- Accurate moisture / oven volatiles with no batch-to-batch adjustments required
- Nicotine and sugars with similar accuracy as reference methods
- Additional parameters such as menthol, ammonia, nitrates and more
