Quality
IREKS invests in quality
IREKS produces quality. This principle of the company
philosophy is strictly applied by IREKS in the new
production plant for improvers and mixes in Kulmbach.
The raw materials are dosaged direct in
batch containers, where they are mixed and
stored.
Everything which comes into contact with the
products can be broken down into modules
and cleaned.
All the raw material deliveries and the production batches are
recorded and can be retraced at all times.
Product reliability and hygiene on the level of pharma production
– IREKS has made provision for the future in this way.
Quality
Product quality begins with raw materials
The quality and safety of the raw materials are
fundamental aims of our customer-oriented product policy.
One of the ways of achieving these
aims is by systematic, quality control.
This is particularly apparent in our
ultra trace analysis laboratory:
The raw materials are checked for minute
levels of heavy metal and pesticides –
down to 1 gram of toxic substance in
1 million tons of raw material.
This enables us to select raw materials even more carefully and
use natural products of the highest level of purity.
Quality
ISO 9001, IFS and HACCP
We have been certified according to
ISO 9001 since 1995 and to the IFS
(International Food Standard) since 2004.
Therefore, the complete process from
product development to processing and finally
to the distribution of our products is subject to the
quality management system.
In 1996, our HACCP-concept for the production of
improvers and mixes came into effect.
The “Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points”
method is comprised of all the measures for a
systematic and risk-conscious quality control
during all stages of production.
With this as a basis, we constantly work to
improve and develop further the quality
standards in the interest of our
customers.
Service
A strong field service
Our international field service staff is comprised of highly
competent expert master bakers and confectioners who
know the bakery trade inside out.
They are the ideal partners to contact should tailor-made
solutions, technical support and new product ideas be required,
– not only on the phone, but also on the spot,
– not only now and again, but continuously, with several
hundred members of staff in many countries.
The IREKS field service team is
constantly trained at our own
baking centres, in order to
keep abreast of the latest
developments of the
trade.
Service
First-class service
In the IREKS Baking Centres
in many countries, we offer
practical seminars, held by
our own experts.
Our recipe development provides
new ideas for an attractive and
profitable product range – typical of
a country or with an international flair.
With professional advertizing support and advertizing campaigns
we contribute to successful sales of baked goods for our customers.
Our own specialist literature, e.g. “IREKS: The World of Baking”,
the “IREKS-ABC” or the “Bäckereitechnisches Handbuch”, can
readily be passed on to our customers.
A comprehensive service supports our customers in all
questions relating to the bakery.
