Gain insight into cats’ and dogs’ feeding behaviors, sensory preferences, and enjoyment with Panelis, our innovative, pet-friendly measurement center.

To be the worldwide expert in pet food palatability measurement, Panelis consults cats and dogs themselves – in a caring environment ensuring the highest standards for their well-being, or at home thanks to a great community of committed pet owners. In return, these pets help us deliver reliable, insightful data on the foods or olfactive stimuli they prefer and how they enjoy them.

You can proceed with confidence at all stages of product development, knowing you have varied and robust answers directly from pets and their owners.
