A scientific approach to your practical question
I am Natalia Horbach, a food technologist, researcher and lecturer in Poland. I hold a PhD in Chemistry from Wrocław University of Science and Technology, awarded with distinction. I combine food technology, chemistry, biochemistry and microbiology to consider the product and production process together.
I enjoy complex tasks and working with teams. A consultation focuses on your product, ingredients, equipment and working conditions. If on-site work is needed, I can visit your production site in Poland by prior arrangement.
Questions we can work through
A new product or a recipe change
Ingredients, product properties, trials, stability and scale-up. We identify what can be assessed from your materials and what needs experimental work.
Product developmentHACCP and food safety
Questions about processes, hazards, hygiene and documentation. We discuss the information needed for your specific operation.

Product characteristics, labels, storage conditions and materials for technical preparation for sale or import. We identify relevant specialists and checks.

Process steps, equipment, raw material and finished-product flows. We can discuss a launch plan, a specific process or preparations for expansion.
Starting food productionHow an online consultation works
Agree the topic and time
We confirm the materials, duration and final rate before meeting. A technologist, manager or another team member can join the video call if useful.
Work through the question and next steps
We discuss possible approaches, missing information and the order of further work. We identify whether a consultation is enough or a separate project is needed.
A consultation supports an informed decision. Documentation, laboratory analyses, trials, a written expert report and site visits are agreed separately if needed.

Before your first meeting
Can I book a consultation while in Ukraine?
Yes. The consultation is online, so you do not need to travel to Poland for the first conversation. We agree the brief and materials beforehand.
Can you help with production under veterinary supervision?
We can review the product, process and questions for the relevant authority. Preparation of the site and documents is scoped separately; registration or approval is decided by the competent inspection authority.
Can a consultation lead to a larger support project?
Yes. After the first conversation, we can agree separate stages such as product development, documentation, an audit or launch support. Consultations already included in an agreed package are not charged again.
Can you visit my production site?
Yes, visits to production sites in Poland are available by arrangement. We agree the work, date and travel costs before the visit.
