Certificates and Transparency: The Basis of Trust and Quality

In the food and agriculture industry, certificates are not just documents — they are the key to trust, proof of consistency and commitment to the highest standards. Transparency is an additional foundation of that trust, giving our consumers insight into every step of the manufacturing process. Through years of work, we have learned that superior quality does not come by accident; it is the result of discipline, knowledge and attention to detail.

Our Certificates: Quality and Safety Guarantee
1. Global Certification of Compliance — Verified Hygiene Management

This certification is a confirmation that we have aligned our processes with world standards of hygiene and food safety. Here's how we apply it:

  • Hygiene control in facilities:Our production infrastructure is subject to strict cleaning and disinfection protocols, including daily barn washing and disinfection of equipment such as lactofridges and milkmaids.
  • Monitoring of water resources:Water hygiene on the farm is checked regularly to ensure there is no contamination that could endanger the milk.
  • Daily protocols for the team:Each member of our staff is required to follow cleanliness protocols, including sterilizing equipment before and after each contact with raw milk.

Our commitment to these standards has allowed us to build operational consistency that meets the most stringent requirements of domestic and foreign markets.

2. Halal Certificate

Halal certification, which covers our raw milk production, reflects a commitment to standards specific to Islamic communities but also the wider market. Here is more detail about it:

  • Animal feed without additives:Our cows are fed exclusively natural nutrients that comply with halal guidelines, with no additives, GMOs or growth promoters.
  • Hygienic standards in production:Halal standards require strict hygiene control at all stages, which includes disinfection of udders before and after milking and regular sterilization of equipment.
  • Transparency in documentation:Each batch of products is documented with full process information, which allows certification bodies to easily verify compliance.

Halal certification allows us not only access to specific markets, but also to demonstrate our expertise in meeting the most stringent requirements.

3. HACCP System (DQS Certificate)

The HACCP system is not just documentation — it is a dynamic framework for identifying, monitoring and minimizing risks at all stages of production. Here's how we apply it:

  • Identification of critical control points:Our risk analysis includes every step of production, from feeding cows to storing milk. Example: the temperature in lactofreezes is monitored in real time using sensors to prevent milk spoilage.
  • Preventive measures:Regular testing of raw milk for bacteria and somatic cells allows us to react quickly to possible changes in quality.
  • Staff Training:Our workers undergo education to understand HACCP principles and know how they are applied in practice, ensuring that standards are adhered to on a daily basis.

This certification covers both raw milk production and heifer fattening, confirming our commitment to safety and quality.

4. Extra class of milk

Obtaining the “extra class” label according to the requirements of the Federal Ministry of Agriculture is not easy - it requires a continuous commitment to detail. Here's what we do to achieve this level of quality:

  • Microbiological analyzes twice a month:Laboratory tests check the level of somatic cells and the total number of bacteria, and the results are used for further adjustments in diet and hygiene practices.
  • Disinfection and monitoring:The udder is treated with special means before and after milking to eliminate potential contamination. In addition, the hygiene of lactofriezes and milkmaids is regularly monitored.
  • Consultation with experts:We are constantly working with veterinary services to improve the health of the herd and, consequently, the quality of milk.
Transparency: The foundation of trust
1. Documentation and monitoring of each step

From the moment we prepare food for our cows to the storage of finished products, everything is documented. Transparency allows:

  • Quick problem identification:If any challenge arises, we know exactly where it happened and how to solve it.
  • Consumer safety:Our customers can see how the products came to be and be convinced of the quality through documented processes.
2. Regular inspections

External inspectors regularly visit our farm to confirm compliance with HACCP, Halal and other standards. These inspections are an opportunity for additional verification of our processes and quality assurance.

Why are certifications and transparency important to consumers?
1. Food safety

Certificates guarantee that our products are safe for consumption, and transparency allows customers to see how we achieve those standards.

2. Confidence in local production

Small producers are often suspicious by the local community due to lack of information. Transparent sharing of processes strengthens trust and support for local agriculture.

3. International market

Our certifications, like HACCP, open the door to the global market, which contributes to the strengthening of the domestic economy.

Conclusion

Certificates and transparency are not just formalities — they are the core of our work. Every step, from feeding livestock to packaging finished products, is subject to rigorous standards that we proudly share with our consumers. Our commitment to quality, safety and ethics is reflected in every detail.

Together, let's choose security, trust and superior quality.
