Our blending technology offers limitless possibilities for production
On three automatic blending lines controlled by a central process control and visual display system we are able to make up and document all manner of different formulations. In this way we ensure the closest possible adherence to formulations and safe and gentle processing of the products. The existence of three separate blending lines enables us to carry out different orders simultaneously without the risk of cross contamination.
Modern technology and methods we have developed ourselves
Special blending units fitted with spraying, heating and cooling devices ensure extremely fine, homogeneous dispersion. Substances that are difficult to blend, such as lecithin, are compounded into free-flowing premixes by a method we have developed ourselves.
Maximum flexibility and customized solutions
The plant is designed for maximum flexibility to allow quick and reliable production of problem-solving products for individual clients – even in small batches. Microprocessor-controlled equipment for dosing small amounts of powders and viscous substances ensures that formulations can be made up accurately to the gram.
Comprehensive quality control – to ensure that only first-class products leave our factory
Our quality assurance system starts with purchasing. The raw materials are tested by the company’s own laboratory and an outside institution. When choosing them we already place great emphasis on clearly defined selection criteria. The raw materials have to have certain physical and microbiological properties. Only goods that meet our strict requirements are released for the production of our stabilising systems. The raw materials are then processed in accordance with the HACCP Guidelines.
The finished products are tested according to strict criteria too. At our applications laboratory the customer’s recipes are made up with the Hydrosol stabilising systems. Our applications technicians can simulate any production process exactly on a laboratory scale.
In this way we ensure that our products keep the promises we make.
