Wine
Billions of bottles of wine are being produced every year, and many wineries have grown so large that the routine analyses of sulfites, volatile acidity, etc., have become more and more difficult. After all, when production numbers are approaching 300,000 cases or more, testing for the on-site laboratory can become quite a daunting task!
These wine labs obviously need to have analyses completed rapidly in order to keep up with the demands of production. And since wine makers require these data to ensure quality wines, such prompt, accurate testing can be done only through automation.

With our many years of experience in automated analyzers, we are here to help your lab monitor analyses from the beginning of harvest to the final bottling process.
