This refers to controlling the production process by evaluating the food mixes at each stage of production at the Aalaf laboratories and avoiding any artificial materials which could be harmful to humans, as the mixes completely depend on the plant materials and their oils such as yellow corn, corn gluten and soyabeans.
Production Steps:
To guarantee the quality of Aalaf’s raw materials, the steps mentioned below must be followed:
1 – Choosing & Receiving the Raw Materials
• No signs of self-heating
• No signs of mold growth
• No color changes to the cargo
• No unusual odors
• No signs of infestation
• Cargo temperature recorded on discharge
• Monitor any tally operations
• Draught survey results to be confirmed as accurate and agreed by all parties
• Received copies of any 3rd party surveyor reports
• Ensure on completion an empty hold certificate is issued
• Ensure an out turn report / certificate is agreed
• Take and store a representative sample at delivery for analysis at our laboratory.
2 – Raw materials storage at the factory
- Aalaf implements local and global standards regarding storing the raw materials at its factory. The company is equipped with a 40,000 mt silo that stores grains & a 9,000 MT flat store for soyabean meals in bulk.
3 – The Production:
Materials are grounded in the mills in order to increase the preparation area for the heat treatment. Aalaf also adds anti-fungal, anti-clostridia, coccidian, digestive enzymes and growth promoters to its feed mixes that are supported by synthetic essential amino acids such as Methionine, Lucien, Threonine, Valine and Tryptophan to boost the nutritional efficacy of the plants materials that are used to achieve the maximum growth rate.
- The materials mixing preparations are done under professional and constant control, to ensure the consistency of Aalaf feed formation.
- Aalaf feed formation is transferred to specialized containers with pistons, followed by a steaming process after pressing and granulating.
- Cooling granulates is Aalaf’s newest process in feed production field.
- Spraying is the last step of the milled feed production processes.
- Aalaf feed is loaded as crushed or granulated mixes and filled in containers after it is classified for each type, then it is weighed and packed automatically.
At the end of Aalaf feed production phases, a sample of each type is tested under specific conditions and stored in warehouses. After receiving the analysis results and recommendations, it is ready for distribution.
