Water report for FSSAI

What is an FSSAI water testing report?

An FSSAI water testing report is a laboratory report showing that the water used in a food business, as an ingredient or for processing and cleaning, meets the IS 10500 drinking water standard.

Food businesses applying for an FSSAI licence, particularly manufacturers and processors, are usually asked for a water analysis report covering chemical and microbiological parameters to show the water they use is potable.

Accurate Universal Laboratories Pvt. Ltd. is NABL accredited and recognised by FSSAI, and tests water as per IS 10500 for food businesses across Gujarat.

Need FSSAI water tested?

Why it matters

Safe water is the base of safe food

Water touches every food product, either as an ingredient or through cleaning. Contaminated water can contaminate food, so FSSAI asks food businesses to show their water is potable.
