THE KERFOOT GROUP
well as providing the extensive safety
data required by regulators, is an
essential offering.
To ensure that all oils in the Kerfoot
range comply with stringent safety tests
while assuring customers of their
commitment to innovation and industry
compliance regulations, Kerfoot has
invested in new in-house laboratory
facilities. These incorporate a range of
equipment to support customers, including
Rancimat, Gas Chromatography and
Mass Spectrophotometry technology.
To further ensure quality is in line with
global requirements, the technical team
is highly skilled at carrying out a range
of activities involving in-house testing or,
where needed, will make use of
accredited external laboratory facilities
for specialist requirements. The company
also works with parent company, Avril
Group, to provide customers with the
analytical services they need to meet
their latest formulation and industry
regulation requirements.
Established in 1983, the Avril Group
was initially set up as an initiative of
French farmers to assure sustainable
outlets for their production of rapeseed,
sunflower, olive, soybean, and protein
crops including pea, field bean and
lupin. This provides a natural heritage for
Kerfoot and its enviable portfolio of oils.
The experienced global team can
help brand owners and product
formulators quickly and effectively create
formulations that speak to the demands of
today’s consumer. It can also support the
unique needs of manufacturers with
product offerings from sister companies
Novastell and Oleon for all your
tocopherol and glycerin requirements.
