Sensory aspects are not only relevant for food products but are also essential for household and personal care products.
Furthermore there is a growing interest coming from less obvious sectors like the car industry (odour and feel of fabric), Mobile operators (ringtones) etc.

Depending on the product and its application, the recommended method is sensory analysis under controlled conditions on the one hand or in-home testing in a real situation on the other hand.

Toothpaste for instance can perfectly be tested in the sensory lab of V-G Sensory as the booths are equipped with a basin and a tap.
Studies concerning the usage of products in specific applications and during a longer period are preferably tested in-home.

In this field too V-G Sensory can appeal to quite some experience.
Some product types that were tested in-home: washing products, cleaning products, nappies.
