Quality
SAMPLE BANK
We understand that quality is crucial in the fragrance industry. That is why we have a highly organized sample bank at our facilities, designed to facilitate the collection and continuous monitoring of the quality of our fragrances throughout their life cycle and to review the traceability of production batches.
- Archiving of Representative Samples: Small quantities of each batch of fragrance produced are stored for future reference and comparison. This includes not only the final samples, but also the intermediate samples that allow any variations during the manufacturing process to be traced.
- Quality Monitoring: Archived samples are used to verify product quality over time. This includes observing changes in the fragrance profile, chemical stability, and scent durability. It is essential that samples are stored under controlled temperature and humidity conditions to prevent alterations that do not reflect the original characteristics of the fragrance.
- Batch Verification: In large-scale manufacturing, the sample bank allows verification that each batch meets established quality standards. If a customer has concerns about the quality of a product, the sample bank serves as a reference to verify that there have been no changes in the formulation or production that could have affected the final result.
- Records and Traceability: Each sample is meticulously labeled and recorded, allowing full traceability from fragrance development to commercialization. This also facilitates quality management should retrospective studies or verification of compliance with regulatory and safety requirements be necessary.
- Stability Tests: Stability studies are conducted to evaluate how a fragrance changes over time and under different conditions (light, heat, oxygen, etc.). Stored samples are crucial for observing whether any batches experience alterations in quality, aroma, or chemical properties.
- Audits and Comparisons: The sample bank allows fragrances to be compared across different batches, ensuring consistency and fidelity in the final product.
This system is a cornerstone of our commitment to consistent quality and customer satisfaction, ensuring that every fragrance delivers the same sensory experience, regardless of the production batch.
