Providing an Integrated Production Facility & Lab Services Research & Development Lab – part of the process of producing premium products Applying analytic methods to assure consistent quality manufacturing processes Self sustaining, environmentally aware, integrated production facility Research & Development Lab – integral part of the process of producing premium products Our full Research and Development Laboratory facility provides the resources to simultaneously run numerous pilot scales studies and experiments.  This provides us with the ability to constantly monitor and evaluate each process and incorporate improvements on an ongoing basis. This also allows for identifying process changes, which can prove advantageous to optimizing the gelatin manufacturing process while maintaining premium quality standards and production efficiencies. Applying analytic methods to assure consistent quality manufacturing processes In addition, we maintain a large Analytical Laboratory, which has the capability to conduct a full array of tests and measurements on both raw materials and products. Sample of tests performed: Gel Strength Insolubles Viscosity Viscosity loss Moisture Repellency pH Metals Color USP/NF microbiological tests Haze Molecular weight distribution Ash Additional HPLC tests Self-sustaining, environmentally aware, integrated production facility We own our power plant, water system (supply) and specialized waste treatment plant, which makes our facility virtually self-sustaining. Access to these resources and processes gives direct management over every aspect of the manufacturing process and an additional level of control beyond competitors. By eliminating the variables in water and power supplies, we eliminate any reliance on external suppliers and assure a constant and consistent supply of key resources to meet your production requirements.
