SGS’s extensive range of accurate seed testing services can help you to reduce trade risks, maximize yields and make your business more competitive.

By offering effective seed safety and seed storage trials, we not only reduce your risk but also allow you to derive full value from your resources. Our seed trials and seed amendment studies include performance evaluations for protectants, polymers and coatings plus assessments for safety and storability.

Thanks to our global network of high-tech laboratories, we can accommodate pre-treated studies, or even apply treatments on your behalf, to produce timely and accurate results.
