Quality control
We carry out careful analysis at every stage of the synthesis and production process, checking everything that enters and leaves our sites.
Safety first
The one aspect that is truly fundamental to us is safety; the safety of our staff, who receive ongoing training to improve their skills, and the safety of our production processes. This means, for example, that the production areas for herbicides, insecticides and fungicides are separated into different buildings and carefully organised to prevent cross contamination.
Our quality laboratory monitors the entire production process on a daily basis, checking for impurities in active ingredients and finished products, and checking for (and preventing) cross contamination. It also works in contact with the environmental laboratory which monitors the effects of the factories’ activities on the local area, examining wastewater, quantifying emissions and carrying out abatement tests on new active ingredients.

Digitisation of processes
Our factories are increasingly interconnected because we strategically use data collection and analysis to ensure ongoing and efficient production. Thanks to recent investments in smart production, we control all stages of production remotely and in real time.
Our logistics organisation, from production to warehousing, uses robotic technology and is based on the Warehouse Management System (WMS), which manages label storage in our vertical warehouse according to the latest available standards. Our warehouses are equipped with drive-in and shuttle shelving, which is ideal for the bulk storage of the hundreds of items we handle at the same time and which are shipped to around 38 countries across every continent. All incoming and outgoing raw materials, packaging and pallets are managed using a barcode system to ensure that each batch is fully traceable.
