All the extracting, concentration and drying processes are studied and validated, first by the R&D department and then on industrial scale, in order to fully respect the integrity of the phytocomplex. The producting processes are carried out only with water and ethanol, that are natural solvents, of traditional use, therefore safe for human health. All production phases are based on the long expertise EPO has developed over the years and obtained by the use of cutting edge technologies, to ensure a minimum impact on the environment.
Over 300 raw materials regularly reach our warehouse and are immediately sampled and quarantined. After approval by the Q.C. the batch can be used for the extract production.
Various traditional extracting methods and solvents (such as water and ethanol) are used, always with a particular attention to human and evnironment safety.
This phase is carried out by controlling temperature and pressure to ensure the phytocomplex integrity; the product thus obtained is a soft extract.
After decanting, the fluid extracts are filtered to ensure stability.
This is done by atomization (spray drying) or static oven, controlling temperature and pressure to ensure the phytocomplex integrity.
The bulk extracts are packed into jerricans from 1 to 50 kg.
The extracts are mixed with excipients to obtain the standardized finished product.
The powders are carefully sieved to guarantee a product with homogeneous and standard particle size.
The bulk extracts are packed into drums from 1 to 25 kg.
