- Sustainable production practices ensure consistent quality across all product lines.
- Complete readiness for audits and client compliance checks with comprehensive documentation.
Product Inspection & Lab Testing
Each product undergoes a strict testing protocol based on a comprehensive risk assessment:
- Microbiological, pesticide, allergen, chemical, physical, and sensory testing are performed on every batch.
- Test results are meticulously compared to customer-specific limits before the product is released.
- Retention samples are stored for future verification, traceability, and quality assurance purposes.
- Ongoing verification by qualified QC staff ensures laboratory reliability and accuracy.
Laboratory Standards
We operate a state-of-the-art, dedicated in-house chemical laboratory:
- Volatile Oil Analysis—Precisely measures essential oil content and quality profiles.
- Humidity Control—Ensures optimal moisture levels are maintained within strict specifications.
- Ash Content Testing—Comprehensively assesses total mineral content and purity.
- Acid-insoluble ash (AIA) testing is used in-house to measure inorganic impurities, such as silica. It helps detect adulteration or contamination, supports quality control of raw materials and finished products, ensures compliance with regulatory standards, and ultimately enhances product safety by identifying unwanted inorganic residues.
- Retained Sample Archive—Systematically stored for every batch, ensuring full traceability and quality reference.
All products are thoroughly tested to be compliant with destination country regulations. Guaranteeing it is completely free from cross-contamination, allergens, and unwanted residues. Our comprehensive testing protocols meet and exceed EU food safety standards and organic certification requirements.
