# Problem solving related to the formulation

## Are you having problems with your formulations?

### What is a formulation?

A formulation is a mixture of different raw materials to design homogeneous, stable products with specific properties (texture, color, smell, taste …) and meet the requirements of a functional specification.

### What problems can be encountered?

Several types of problems can occur during the preparation of your formulations, including

- change in appearance,
- change of color,
- phase shift of the formulation,
- odor problems, etc…

Thus, the support of a laboratory specialized in problem solving is a significant asset in the resolution of your formulation problems.
