CDR CiderLab: The complete, reliable and fast system of chemical analyses of cider.
CDR CiderLab is the analysis system for quality controls at all stages of the cider production process. Thanks to its ease of use, it speeds up and simplifies traditional analytical procedures, obtaining results that correlate with those of reference methods.
Your laboratory in total autonomy
With CDR CiderLab you can analyse cider in a simple and reliable way. Its innovation optimises traditional analytical procedures, speeding them up and simplifying them. It is so easy to use that it can be used both in the laboratory and directly in the production facility, even by personnel not specialised in laboratory techniques.
Excellent results in just a few steps
Comprising a photometric technology analyser, a kit of ready-to-use pre-filled reagents and some pipettes for easy sample collection, CDR CiderLab allows you to obtain the results you need in just a few steps.
CDR CiderLab is:
Reliable
- Accuracy: results in accordance with official reference methods.
- Sensitivity: LED readout cells ensure a wide measurement range and consistently accurate detection.
- Repeatability: the system ensures excellent consistency of results on each individual test.
Simple
- For everyone: can be used by anyone, without the need for specialized technical personnel.
- Versatile: ideal for use in the laboratory or directly on the production line, in real time.
- Built-in Help: the Help function assists the operator step by step through each step of the analysis.
Fast
- No waiting: there is little or no sample preparation, drastically reducing time.
- Few steps: our methods speed up procedures compared to traditional systems.
- Multitasking: analyze multiple samples simultaneously or detect multiple analytical parameters on the same sample, at the same time.

Frequently Asked Questions about CDR CiderLab
A: The system’s reliability is confirmed by studies from universities and specialized institutes. Our clients worldwide attest to its effectiveness: Some methods are used by prestigious multinational groups
A: Each CDR test method is correlated with the corresponding international reference method, and in some cases is also adopted by accredited laboratories.
A: At startup, the instrument automatically checks the reading cell and blocks the analysis if an error is detected. In addition, CDR provides Control Solutions, samples with predefined results that allow users to regularly verify both instrument performance and operator accuracy. Integration with SAP further supports monitoring of the system’s status.
A: Because CDR CiderLab analyzers are factory pre-calibrated together with their reagents, with calibration data embedded in the instrument and each reagent lot aligned to previous lots; an automatic self-check at every startup verifies performance, so routine user calibration is unnecessary, with fine-tuning available if necessary when aligning to alternative methods or legacy datasets.

A: No, CDR CiderLab requires neither maintenance nor periodic cleaning.
This is possible thanks to its optical technology based on an LED reading cell, which does not need calibration or periodic replacement, unlike traditional tungsten lamps or other more delicate systems. No drift over time, no corrective action required.
Its compact and robust design also makes the instrument ideal for direct use on production lines, even in demanding operational environments such as olive mills, wineries, breweries, or plants with industrial fryers.
Many of our customers have been using CDR CiderLab for years, performing hundreds of analyses per week, without ever having to stop operations for maintenance activities.A: No Qualified technicians is needed: the system is intuitive and accessible to anyone.
A: Yes. CDR FoodLab® uses reagents in minimal quantities, significantly reducing operator risks compared to traditional methods. Additionally, it ensures sustainability through micro-analysis, which minimizes reagent use, waste, and emissions while maintaining safety and efficiency in food and beverage quality control. [More info ...]
A: Overall costs are highly competitive thanks to shorter analysis times, absence of maintenance, and long system lifespan based on LED technology.
