Investing in the Future
Our
Facilities
Our modern, leading-edge facility is the result of 20 years of investment. We are continually investing in our world-class 36,000 square foot production facility based in County Meath, Ireland.
Our production unit is FSSC 22000 Food Safety accredited, Department of Agriculture, China Dairy Approved and registered with the FDA.
1.
Formulation Laboratory
Products which have successfully passed through theoretical formulation, commercials and compliance are initially developed in our lab. We then carry out further testing with external accredited laboratories to verify the required nutritional, microbiological, allergen and functional characteristics.
4.
Powder Blending
We batch-blend milk powders using a double ribbon blender. Each batch is carefully checked before and after blending to ensure specified quality requirements are met. We have full traceability of all ingredients from goods inwards through to blending.
2.
Prototype Manufacture
We can make short-run samples in the lab, or small production runs on a prototype basis in production for pre-testing or limited launches. This helps with final product development and can deliver samples to clients very efficiently.
5.
Filling Lines
We have multiple filling lines capable of filling three and four-sided sachets, stand-up pouches and multi-size plastic tubs. We develop a process solution to meet each new requirement, and we are constantly investing in new production equipment.
3.
Allergen Control
We have four distinct, self-contained production halls within the facility, each with its own HEPA controlled air supply. We have a strict verified cleaning regime to ensure that there is no cross-contamination or cross over of allergens.
6.
Multi-packing for Retail
We offer a full service of customising retail packs, including multi-packing of multiple varieties in a single retail pack. We pack special offers to help promote the launch of products or as part of planned promotions.
Our
Accreditations
Our production unit is FSSC 22000 Food Safety accredited, Department of Agriculture, China Dairy Approved and registered with the FDA. We are very proud to hold so many industry certifications.
We have worked with John & his team for many years and thanks to their expert team we have created quality products well beyond our expectations. From the initial concept with management to working with the team of nutritionists & food technologists, we were kept informed on all regulations and compliance issues. Complex Nutrition were at all times an inspiration in product design and a pleasure to work with, they gave us great peace of mind throughout the process.
