Contamination & Risk Assessment

Contaminants, impurities, product recalls? Despite the precautions and practices, burst pipes, leaks from machinery or equipment, product tampering and contaminated ingredients from suppliers are just a few unforeseen sources of compromised products. Without adequate evaluation and proper perspective, the consequences may include destruction of entire lots of product, potential recalls, loss of public confidence, and possibly litigation.

Intertek Cantox team includes several experts with a wealth of experience in risk assessment. With consideration of exposure potential as well as hazard, we determine the realistic risks associated with the contamination to address the uncertainty and fear associated with inadvertent contamination. We will interpret the evidence, define the risks to consumers, and help to minimize the repercussions. We also assist our clients by liaising with government officials and addressing public concerns.
