QUALITY
Our highest priority
Quality is a subject close to our hearts and a constant challenge in terms of ongoing improvement. Our customers and our own high expectations set our standard of quality.
In order to meet our quality targets, we follow a strict, future-oriented four-stage model:
QUALITY ASSURANCE
QUALITY ASSURANCE
Everything firmly in our sights
We rely on constant microbiological, physical, sensory and chemical product monitoring in our internal laboratory and independent scientific facilities. In keeping with the motto “Trust is good, control is better”, our products are subjected to constant quality checks – for example by having around 18,000 analyses a year performed in accredited laboratories run by independent service providers.
In our own laboratory, around 25 staff perform “in-process checks” around the clock to safeguard quality standards during the production process.
QUALITY MANAGEMENT
NO COMPROMISES
Together with extensive quality control plans and laboratory analyses by accredited laboratories in Germany and abroad, our quality management, hygiene concepts and preventive programs help us meet the high standards we impose on our semi-finished and finished products and the packaging we use.
As a result, we far exceed the statutory requirements in Europe. We ensure the constant trackability of all the raw and other materials used for our products, thus guaranteeing maximum product safety.
CERTIFICATES
STANDARDS WE LIVE UP TO
We have been certified by the IFS (International Featured Standard Food) since 2005.
Regular control audits and process checks based on the internationally recognised HACCP (Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point) concept also contribute significantly to our quality assurance and early recognition of risks.
