Bodycote Norpath, part of Bodycote Health Sciences, the leading food, environmental and pharma testing group, has secured the contract to provide food testing as well as pool and health spa sample testing for Hilton hotels in the UK and Ireland.
Food and spa testing is required on a regular basis to ensure hotels are meeting all necessary health and safety, as well as legal requirements.
Douglas Cameron - Safety & Security Risk Director - Hilton Hotels said: “As a leading hotel brand we put the safety of our guests and staff top of the agenda. Our team is able to work closely with the Norpath Lab based the North of England, but the location of other Bodycote Health Sciences’ laboratories across the UK means we have additional resource available as required.
The contract, which will be co-ordinated through Hilton’s Safety and Security Risk Department based in Glasgow, will involve regular testing of samples from all UK Hilton sites – 75 hotels – for routine microbiological analysis, as part of the company’s due diligence requirements.
Note to editors: Founded in 1987, Norpath was one of the first independent analytical laboratories to be accredited by UKAS. The company was acquired by Bodycote Health Sciences as part of the Food and Consumer Products division in July 2006. The company now employs 20 staff and provides routine testing plus microbiological research and consultancy service.
As well as Norpath, the Bodycote Health Sciences Food and Consumer Products division comprises LawLabs in Birmingham, Allied in Grimsby, Foodscan in Glasgow, Consultus in Cork.
