Research & Development
Quality Lab
The QL, Quality Laboratory, is committed to the continuous control of the flow of all the materials that enter the process. This starts with the ingredients and packaging materials; it goes on to the semi-finished intermediate products; it ends with the pellets and the control of the expansion of the finished products by means of frying or hot air expansion, depending on the product.
All the batches of produced pellets get re-examined after 3 days (stabilization period) in compliance with their key characteristics as agreed with the client.
QL is in charge of the application of themAnalysis Plan for all the micro-biological, chemical and toxicological tests carried out by external laboratories.
QL plays a vital role in our research and development work.
