We built this field
AQUALAB's founders developed water activity instrumentation because researchers needed tools that didn't exist yet. When industry wanted the same instruments, our company was born. Forty years later, we still have a moisture research lab and a team of scientists on staff.
For us, moisture analysis tools are not one product line among dozens. They’re the core of our business and our expertise.
MOISTURE IS EVERYWHERE
Every stage, every industry
At most food companies, “moisture science” is a single audit-required water activity check at the end of the line. That's the smallest version of what it can do. The same science offers benefits at every stage of product development.
And the same principles that keep a Twinkie shelf-stable for months apply to pharmaceuticals, nutraceuticals, cosmetics, petroleum products, and more.
If moisture matters to your product's safety or performance, it matters to us.
“We need to understand how much water we put in – people think, ‘Oh, well is there water in the recipe?’ There might be, but there's also water coming in with certain types of ingredients. You have to look at the full picture.”
