Quality raw material is the basis for a quality product

When delivering raw materials, we choose only reliable and recognized suppliers. For the Frutek program, only those raw materials are suitable for which safety and health integrity have been proven by appropriate analysis in the field of pesticides and pollutants. We use raw materials from controlled or BIO production; for each raw material an additional inspection of each shipment is carried out internally. In this way, all raw materials are 100% examined and meet strict requirements in terms of health fitness prescribed by law and internal quality criteria. Every raw material used in Frutek products is considered not to have been produced or processed using GMOs (genetically modified organisms).

Also, packaging materials, which are in direct contact with baby food, need to comply with legislation in the area of ​​health fitness and are subject to strict internal inspection before use. 

Raw materials are stored under controlled conditions in refrigerators and freezers in order to maintain as many nutrients as possible. In this way, the taste, consistency and natural color of fruit raw materials are maintained. 

Finally, before delivery to the market, there is labeling, dating and packing into the transport packaging. 

The Frutek baby food production process is carefully controlled at every stage of the production process. The control is based on the control and critical control points being the result of the risk analysis assessment regarding the product safety and quality. In 2021, we were among the first in Slovenia to receive the HACCP system certificate for the production of Frutek baby food, and we are constantly upgrading and improving the system in accordance with the food safety standard (IFS Food). 

We pay special attention to ingredients and products that contain allergens or trace allergens. We manage risks and ensure that the entire process from delivery, collection, storage of ingredients and production is controlled. Each Frutek product has allergens appropriately listed and marked on the label, as prescribed by law. 

Production process controlled with care

In Fructal, the production of the Frutek children's program takes place on three production lines: on the lines for hot filling of juices in bottles and the lines for the production of baby food in glass jars and bags. 

Prior to production, raw materials are re-checked. The technological procedure on all production lines takes place in the following stages: measuring and mixing of ingredients according to prescribed recipes, control and approval of ingredients before filling, filling and closing, and heat treatment that ensures the adequacy and stability of the product during its entire term of use. 

Ensuring traceability and output control quality

Each filled product has its own number printed on the packaging, which ensures traceability in the production process. This means that for each filled product we can determine exactly from which raw materials and under what conditions it was produced. 

All Frutek products are strictly controlled. Each jar of baby food is automatically inspected before and after filling. Adequacy of closure and absence of foreign bodies are checked. 

Before shipping to the market, all Frutek products are subjected to physical and chemical analyses, organoleptic evaluations and microbiological analyses. Only after obtaining the findings of analysis and certifying the adequacy of quality, do we put Frutek products up for sale. In addition to continuous internal control, the quality and safety of our production and Frutek products are constantly under the official control of health inspectors, and continuous controls are carried out by external and internal trained assessors. 

Despite strict controls, in the market, in the process of distribution, transport or storage, there may be damage or impact to packaging, which may consequently lead to the opening of the product. With the inscription on the product, we inform consumers to check the packaging for any damage and whether it is in original packaging before use. If the cap on the bottle or jar bends under pressure, it means that it is not sealed and the product is not suitable for consumption. 

All the procedures mentioned in the selection of raw materials and in the production process are a guarantee that Frutek products represent an adequate, safe and quality choice of complementary food for the youngest.
