Fat/Oil Measurement in Food Processing Industry

At Control Metrix, we recognise that maintaining product consistency in the food processing industry is not just about quality — it’s about safeguarding your reputation and securing long-term customer trust in a competitive marketplace. Substandard products can quickly erode customer confidence, with reputational setbacks and reduced market share following close behind.

With decades of experience supporting the food sector, our team works closely with manufacturers to improve process efficiency and elevate end-product quality across a wide range of applications.

Through our partnership with Nordson Measurement & Control (NDC), we offer precision-engineered, non-contact near-infrared (NIR) solutions. These include online gauges and at-line/laboratory analyzers, delivering consistent, real-time measurement of key attributes such as moisture, protein, fat/oil content, and more. This data empowers production teams to make faster, smarter decisions and achieve better product consistency with less waste.

What Our Customers Say…

"The potato waffles are now the crispiest that they have ever been and are now Birds Eye’s star product"

“Kevin’s industry experience and product knowledge were evident and it has been great to have one point of contact throughout the process. Kevin even wrote our standard operating procedure (SOP) for us, which was much appreciated. We have been using the InfraLab Food Analyzer for ten months now and we can honestly say that there has been a massive improvement in our production processes and ultimately the quality of the end product. The potato waffles are now the crispiest that they have ever been and are now Birds Eye’s star product, thanks to the Infralab Food Analyzer and the guidance and support provided.”

Nigel Jackson - Process Technologist

"We have always been very impressed with the level of service"

“As a manufacturer of various snacks and crisps it is very important for us that we have the ability to measure and control the moisture and oil content as both can dramatically affect product quality, shelf-life and ultimately our reputation. Traditionally, we have always relied on established moisture balance and Carver press methods, but these methods can prove to be very time-consuming. We now favour the NDC Technologies’ InfraLab food analyzer, which has revolutionised our quality checks by making them faster and more frequent. We have found the InfraLab very easy to use and we have found the ability to keep data for quality audits invaluable. We have always been very impressed with Kevin Goodison’s level of service and we have appreciated him taking the time to visit us and assist us with new technologies and training etc.” Read more.
