O-Test™
A Smarter Way to Screen for Organic Produce
Organic? Don’t Guess. Do O-Test.™
With growing interest in organic food, consumers increasingly want confidence that the products they purchase meet their expectations of organic production. But visual appearance alone cannot reliably tell whether a fruit, vegetable or other agricultural product has been produced organically.
O-Test™ is a rapid screening solution designed to provide a convenient preliminary assessment of agricultural produce based on the test principle developed for the product. It helps users perform an accessible on-the-spot check and make more informed decisions about the products they buy and consume.
Why O-Test™?
- Rapid screening – Get a preliminary indication in a short time.
- Simple & convenient – Designed for easy use without complicated procedures.
- Portable – Suitable for testing at home, retail outlets and other locations.
- Consumer-focused – Brings food-quality screening closer to the end user.
- Useful across the supply chain – Suitable for consumers, retailers, growers, food businesses and institutions.
- Supports informed decisions – Helps identify samples that may require further examination.
Beyond Appearance
Organic produce cannot be reliably identified simply by looking at its colour, size, shape or freshness. O-Test™ provides an additional screening approach to help users look beyond appearance and obtain a preliminary indication based on the product’s testing principle.
From Screening to Confidence
O-Test™ is intended as a screening tool and does not replace organic certification, traceability records, or accredited laboratory analysis. Where certification or regulatory verification is required, appropriate documentation and validated laboratory methods should be used.
O-Test™ aims to make food-quality awareness more accessible by putting a simple screening approach into the hands of consumers and stakeholders across the food supply chain.
