Citric acid, sodium citrates and citric acid solutions are produced in line
with the highest standards in the food and pharmaceutical industry.
They invariably meet the requirements of the various specifications and tests
under EP, USP, JP and FCC.
All processes and tasks have been set down in GMP rules. These rules are based
on legal and customer requirements. These GMP rules are supplemented by HACCP,
where, by means of a risk analysis, the critical parameters are defined that
may affect product quality and food safety, which are being monitored by means
of a management plan.
Citric acid from Citrique Belge always meets the highest quality for any
specifications. We pay special attention to the purity of the supplied citric
acid. The use of a specific test of physical purity guarantees a pure product
of the very highest quality. In this way, we guarantee a problem-free use of
citric acid by our customers.
Quality begins with well-trained staff. All processes within Citrique Belge
are carried out by qualified staff. Quality in the shape of GMP rules and
HACCP principles constitutes an intrinsic part of this training.
The supervision of the process begins as early as the raw materials. The
choice of the right raw materials based on worked-out specifications and an
elaborate supplier assessment reduces possible risks to an absolute minimum.
Further tests of raw materials, auxiliary goods and packing materials
guarantee quality The production processes of fermentation, isolation,
refinery and the production of co-products are continuously monitored by
process analyses.
A group of specifically trained laboratory staff carries out, at the end of
the production process, the final-product analyses and guarantee conformity
with all specifications and customer requirements, jointly with the quality
assurance department.
