the LIMS system
for your winery

For over 20 years Open-Co has been operating in the wine area, both supporting production companies of the entire supply chain and the private and public laboratories specialized in the sector.
Prolab.Q is the only solution able to manage in a truly integrated way the quality control activities with the production operations (from the vineyard up to the bottled product) and its traceability . Each company can define the specific characteristics of its production process and the detail required for each stage of the process. The configuration of the environment is dynamic and can evolve over time according to the needs of the business. Open-Co has a series of specialized solutions for the sector that allow you perating efficiently and in a truly paperless way also in this sector.

Prolab.Q and winery laboratory activities

We know in detail the activities and processes that are daily carried out in the wine laboratories.
We have created a series of modules that can support every single phase in order to automate and optimize processes.
