Normec RobaLab in Deurne (The Netherlands) has been officially recognised by RHP as a laboratory authorised to perform RHP analyses. This recognition enables both certified companies and RHP itself to have analyses conducted at RobaLab. The laboratory has specialised expertise in nematode detection.
The recognition was granted following an extensive audit in October 2024, carried out by RHP in collaboration with nematode expert Harm Keidel. During the audit, it was verified whether RobaLab complies with general RHP standards and the specific requirements for laboratories (as outlined in module 120 of the RHP product certification scheme). Several deficiencies identified during the audit were professionally addressed by the RobaLab team. After approval by the Central Board of Experts, the recognition was officially granted in early 2025.
Normec RobaLab in Deurne is the fourth laboratory to be recognised by RHP. It joins Normec Groen Agro Control in Delfgauw (The Netherlands), Eurofins Agro in Wageningen (The Netherlands), and LUFA Nord-West in Oldenburg (Germany). With this expansion, RHP strengthens its network of reliable laboratories that perform analyses for certified products.
