Analysis laboratory for your industrial products

Radiocarbon analysis of industrial products can be used to detect adulteration by the addition of synthetic products, and to verify manufacturing or extraction processes. This method quantifies the percentage of natural ingredients and guarantees the integrity of biobased materials.

The study of stable isotopes also makes it possible to determine the geographical and botanical origin of products such as coffee or meat, and to authenticate products from organic farming.

Our laboratory measures the biogenic carbon content and controls the composition of your solid, liquid or gaseous biofuels.

Radiocarbon testing quantifies the biosourced versus fossil portion of biofuels. CIRAM applies ASTM D6866 standards to guarantee biofuel compliance with regulatory and environmental requirements, ensuring traceability and certification.

Radiocarbon analysis measures the proportion of biogenic carbon in biogas and industrial flue gases. This measurement is essential for certifying the renewable origin of biogas and quantifying the proportion of biomass burned in industrial processes.

CIRAM uses ASTM D6866 and ISO 13833 standards to guarantee compliance with environmental regulations and ensure traceability of energy sources as part of its transition to sustainable energies.

Our experts assess the biogenic carbon content of your biopolymers and bioplastics using the radiocarbon method. CIRAM applies ASTM D6866 and ISO 16620-2 standards to certify the biosourced content of materials.

This analysis is essential for obtaining eco-labels such as OK biobased and DIN CERTCO, which attest to the renewable origin of bioplastics and facilitate their integration into the sustainable market.

CIRAM was also approved by TUV AUSTRIA in 2024.

From insulation panels and flooring to furnishings, our laboratory examines and assesses the biobased content of all building materials.

The 2020 environmental regulations (RE 2020) position bio-sourced materials as priority solutions in new construction. CIRAM applies standards EN 16640 and EN 16785 to ensure certification (in particular the Karibati label) and to support manufacturers in validating their ecological materials.

Radiocarbon analysis assesses the proportion of biogenic carbon in solid recovered fuels, whether gaseous, liquid or solid.

This method enables precise measurement of the proportion of CO₂ from biomass compared with that from petroleum-based sources. CIRAM applies the EN ISO 21644 standard to guarantee CSR compliance with environmental requirements and optimize their energy recovery.

CIRAM analyzes the proportion of biobased products in cosmetics active ingredients and excipients.

We study raw materials, formulations and finished products using radiocarbon testing. This analysis applies to all levels of production, from R&D to the final product, to guarantee an optimal percentage of naturalness and help brands obtain certification attesting to a composition that respects ecological standards.

Biobased detergents and surfactants are increasingly in demand to limit the environmental impact of cleaning products. Radiocarbon analysis can be used to verify the proportion of biobased carbon in these formulations.

CIRAM applies theASTM D6866 and EN 16640 standards to certify compliance with ecological requirements and support the awarding of labels for environmentally-friendly products.

Biobased paints and pigments are developing to meet the demands of environmental regulations and consumer expectations. CIRAM evaluates the biogenic carbon content in these products to guarantee their composition and compliance with biobased labels.

Thanks to radiocarbon analysis and the EN 16640 and EN 16785 standards, we help manufacturers to certify their paints and pigments by enhancing their biobased content.
