We are pleased to announce that Kiotechagil have just had our UFAS (Universal Feed Assurance Standard) Certificate renewed for the next year. This is the quality Assurance scheme required for European manufacturers signifying that we operate under Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP). This certification covers the production of Compound feedingstuffs - non-medicated. This is in addition to our BS EN ISO 9001: 2001 Certification for Chemical blending, packaging and delivery.

I am even more pleased to tell you that at our first attempt we have succeeded in satisfying the Quality Assurance procedures required by FEMAS (The Feed Materials Assurance Scheme). The Scope of the Operation covered is the production and sale of technological feed additives, including antioxidants, anticaking agents, acidity regulators, binders and preservative substances. The production and sale of zootechnical feed additives, including digestibility enhancers.

This scheme is linked to the International Feed Safety Alliance (IFSA) to produce an international standard for the assurance of feed ingredients across the World. The International Feed Safety Alliance (IFSA) is a joint project initiated by the following major European Feed Industry assurance
organizations:

Agricultural Industries Confederation (AIC) of the UK with FEMAS.

Overlegplatform Voedermiddelenkolom VZW (OVOCOM) of Belgium with GMP Animal Feed,

Productschap Diervoeder (PDV) of The Netherlands with GMP+.

QS Qualität und Sicherheit GmbH (QS) of Germany with QS-manual

Fédération Européenne des Fabricants d'Aliments Composés (FEFAC).

In January 2006 it is intended that all members of IFSA will adopt the IFSA Standard for Processed Feed Ingredients in place of the existing FEMAS, GMP,
GMP+ and QS standards. This means that this certification is both
confirmation of the high standards set

This confirms Kiotechagil as a top quality manufacturer of feed ingredients with the highest possible standards of quality control and traceability. This should greatly assist you in the marketing of Kiotechagil products against non-approved suppliers.
