An ancient Chinese proverb explains the importance of the laboratory:
‘I heard and I forgot, I see and I remember, I do and I understand.’ 

Laboratory for us. 

• Controlling the quality of our production 
• Is an important part of our production process
• Is a prerequisite for high quality production. 
• Ensuring good manufacturing practices and controlling critical points. 

In our laboratory, sampling of raw materials and of finished goods applications is made respecting these following aspects. 

• Homogeneity: Especially dust powder feed additives’ raw materials and finished goods sampling methods. 
• Stability: Analyzing how continuous raw materials and finished goods are with time. 
• Representative sampling: Used in particular for licking blocks. For example, selecting random 3 licking blocks from 1000 and testing them. 

In our laboratory, tests are carried out using the following order:

• Repeatability 
• Reproducibility 
• Accuracy 
• Certainty

The equipment we use:

• FTIR spectrometer (MINERAL ANALYSIS) 
• PH meter 
• REFRACTOMETER (Brix measurement) 
• Micro-Vickers (hardness measuring instrument in blocks) 
• Impact Resistance Tester (in blocks) 
• Other standard chemistry laboratory equipment 

Processing procedures: 

• Selectivity 
• The linear range 
• Accuracy 
• Limit of detection 
• The detection limit 
• Stability 
• Certainty
