Nowadays, functional foods are no longer strange to everyone. Not only do they help prevent and support disease treatment, functional foods also improve human health. Functional foods in the form of syrup are water solutions that are liquid and viscous because the syrup contains a large amount of sugar, accounting for about 56 – 64%, and is prepared by dissolving the active ingredients, pharmaceutical ingredients and simple syrup (sugar for use). Used in simple syrup is pharmaceutical sucrose with a solubility in water of 1:0.5 with a saturation concentration of 66.6%) or dissolved sugar into a solution of pharmaceutical ingredients and aromatic substances.
Factors that make quality functional foods in syrup form
Certified for GMP processing
The state is tightening the production and processing of functional foods. All manufacturing factories must be certified to GMP standards. If it does not meet GMP standards, that facility will not be able to produce. Obviously, GMP standards are very important for the production and processing of functional foods in syrup form. Without GMP, the factory will not be able to commit to safe production. There will also be many risks of harm to the product, which can affect the quality of the product. GMP standards are like a tool that helps factories produce more safely and with better quality.
Scientific and convenient factory design
When looking at a factory, people will first look at the scale of the factory. The factory is where production activities take place, so there are many regulations that must be met. First, the factory must have a standard scale for production. Areas must be zoned separately and not confused with each other. Minimize confusion between finished products and semi-finished products, or the possibility of cross-contamination between semi-finished products. Lighting, water supply and drainage systems also need to be installed properly to facilitate the production process. Employees need to have the most convenience when producing to effectively increase production quality.
All machinery is synchronized
Machinery plays an indispensable role in the production process. There are many steps that require mechanical assistance. Therefore, machines need to be synchronized and at the same time qualified for safe production. Modern machinery synchronized with each other will help increase production productivity and reduce production costs. The factory will also speed up production times. Gain more profit than before.
Owns a modern production line
Investment is focused on the production line of each factory. The quality of the product depends largely on the production line. Each step will be arranged reasonably, sequentially, and closed together. Reduce outside impact on the product. With a joint venture with a French partner, the Éloge factory is transferred 100% of production lines and technology according to European standards.
The production process is strictly monitored
An indispensable feature of a quality factory is strict monitoring of the production process. Many factories ignore this and do not control the production process at all. Therefore, the factory cannot clearly understand the quality of the product. A quality factory will own a team of staff specializing in conducting inspections of the production process, continuously monitoring and recording all information during the production process. Once you have a clear understanding of the production situation, the factory will also know whether the product is of the best quality or not. Continuous monitoring throughout the production process helps eliminate harmful hazards. At the same time, quickly detect problems when they occur, limiting losses.
The ingredients used are 100% safe
When processing functional foods in syrup form, the main ingredients used are natural herbs, extremely safe for children. Therefore, the factory needs to conduct inspection of imported materials. 100% of those raw materials must be safe before being brought to the production area. Otherwise, all subsequent stages will be forced to stop. Production is not allowed when raw materials are not guaranteed.
