This is how we prove it

Our innovative testing capabilities reach beyond a typical laboratory’s analytical request form. Working with our clients, we design a custom testing plan. Utilizing cutting edge scientific methods and data analysis, we gather the evidence that will challenge assumptions and uncover the truth.

At Ellipse Analytics, we empower brands with the detailed knowledge of what is in their products. Our bench-marked results reveal how a product performs against the rest of the category. This knowledge, supported by scientific data, enables companies to have verified claims and connect with customers through air-tight promises and compelling brand stories. Companies can also use this evidence to improve their products – to pivot formulations, create unique value differentiators, and capture category niches.

Now let's tell everyone about it

Ellipse Analytics’ bench-marking reveals how your product portfolio performs against the rest of the industry.

We own data on contaminants and product attributes that no one else has. We can use this data to help you produce cleaner and more consistent products, thereby further differentiating your brand from your competitors.

Our bench-marked data will show you the truth about what’s in your products and provide you with a valuable perspective and insight into how you stack up against competitors. You will be empowered to use this data as a tool to understand your sourcing, quality, and brand risk tolerance.
