Novasina launch the new low cost entry level Labstart- aw aimed at chocolatiers and artisan bakeries to reduce waste and spoilage.
Novasina, a leading provider of precision measurement solutions, has announced the launch of the Labstart-aw, a low-cost, entry-level water activity meter designed specifically for chocolatiers, confectioners, and artisan bakeries.
The Labstart-aw enables small and medium-scale producers to accurately measure water activity (aw) in their products, a key factor in controlling microbial growth, texture, and shelf life. By monitoring water activity, chocolatiers and bakers can reduce waste, prevent spoilage, and maintain consistent product quality, all without the high cost typically associated with laboratory-grade instruments.

This new solution is ideal for craft and artisanal operations that want to ensure safety and quality while keeping costs manageable. Novasina’s Labstart-aw provides a user-friendly interface, fast measurements, and reliable performance, making it an accessible tool for daily quality control in small production environments.
