Product Recall, Contamination & Pesticide Residue Investigations
Our Expertise / Product Recall, Contamination & Pesticide Residue Investigations
We support product recall and contamination cases involving fresh produce, agricultural commodities, and temperature-controlled cargo, with particular focus on pesticide contamination and residue-related losses affecting fruits and vegetables. Our services include contamination assessment, traceability analysis, cargo and supply chain investigation, sampling coordination, root cause analysis, and expert reporting to support insurers, importers, exporters, traders, and regulatory requirements.
Why Appoint A Contamination Expert?
Pesticide contamination and residue-related claims often involve complex technical, operational, and regulatory considerations. Determining the source and timing of contamination may require specialist knowledge of agricultural production, post-harvest handling, storage environments, fumigation practices, transport conditions, and cargo operations.
Freshtech Surveys provides independent investigation and technical analysis to help determine:
- How contamination occurred
- Whether cargo was exposed during production, storage, or transit
- The likely source of contamination or residue transfer
- The extent of affected product
- Whether losses could have been prevented
- Potential liability and risk exposure
Our role is to provide clear, objective findings that support claims handling, dispute resolution, recovery actions, and risk mitigation.
