Quality Control
Ralco Nutrition considers Quality Control issues to be of the utmost importance. There are many challenges in providing high quality inspected products. The biggest challenge is TIME. In order to maintain a timely production and delivery schedule, Ralco has implemented many control procedures into the production process which ensure that every ingredient and every product is of the highest quality.
Some of the measures we have taken include:
- Only the highest quality ingredients are purchased for our products. Ralco maintains an Approved Vendor List which verifies that our suppliers are meeting or exceeding our high standards.
- Ralco retains a sample of every Lot of every incoming ingredient.
- Those samples are randomly laboratory tested and compared to the suppliers Certificate of Analysis.
- All samples are kept for a period of two years for traceability.
- All production equipment is cleaned, serviced, and periodically inspected on a regular schedule.
- This, along with feed schedule sequencing and system flushing insures there are minimal feed residues from batch to batch.
- Every batch of every product made is Lot and Date coded to ensure tracking ability.
