Specialists in environmental, agricultural and food testing
We are New Zealand's largest privately owned analytical testing laboratory and have led the way in analytical testing for many years. We have an extensive range of tests, using the latest technology and methods, backed by dedicated Client Services Managers. Hill Laboratories makes a difference for customers by helping them increase their productivity, ensure safety, minimise environmental impact, meet regulatory requirements and support their communities’ well-being.

In early June we will be introducing a refresh of our brand, which is more of an evolution that a revolution. We have a new logo, which connects with the previous one, and have shortened our name to “Hill Labs”, which is less of a mouthful and is how we are typically referred to.

They say a picture paints a thousand words, so with that in mind this article aims to demystify the different soil tests that are in use for measuring soil nitrogen (N).

Worth billions of dollars every year, honey is one of New Zealand’s most valuable export products – and has a global reputation to match. It’s no surprise then that Hill Laboratories’ honey team have become an extremely in-demand service as they help their honey clients meet New Zealand’s strict guidelines around the production and offshore sale of our prized Mānuka honey.
