Beverage Testing Lab Directory
Testing lab directory for beverage brands looking to secure product viability before going to retail and other end consumer spaces.
In an effort to streamline your product launch, you will need to ensure that certain beverages are run through the appropriate testing facilities. Shelf life and health concerns are the focus here.
We want a drink with a long shelf life that is safe to consume.
Read on if you need: shelf-life, microbiological, nutritional panel, or ABV verification testing.
This directory lists beverage testing labs that:
– DO work with beverage brands preparing a product launch
– DO work with various types of drinks
Question:How much lab testing is too much?
Answer: The initial and ongoing costs associated with making sure your drink is safe to consume may seem cumbersome but more hoops to jump through can be good. Increased barriers to entry can be a competitive advantage further on.

Bottle and Can Testing | United States
While looking through several companies that test the actual liquid in the beverage, I found a few companies that only focus on testing the packaging, containers, and bottles for the beverage.
There is some impact to shelf life when it comes to carbonated beverages and improper bottling.
