Product technologists and scientist

Product technologists and scientists have to ensure products are up to scratch before they go on sale to the consumer. They are needed for a wide range of retail products such as clothing, food, fabrics, home wares, electrical goods and children’s toys. Technologists are responsible for the quality, safety and legality of their products as well as launching new ones and continuously improving existing ones. This might involve lowering the salt and fat content of a food product, developing the quality of fabrics or checking the safety of an electrical gadget.
