PRODUCTION

Seljel® is produced from 100% bovine hides as Type A and Type B. Type A implies that raw material is pretreated with acid, and Type B pretreated with lime.

Production of gelatine, derived from the hydrolysis of collagen not only requires a know-how but also it is a long process.

SelJel® is produced without human touch in accordance with EU norms and EC regulations No 853/2004 and No 2073/2005. Production starts with the cutting of raw materials and transfer to the pretreatment just after its entry to the factory. Following maturing period, raw materials are washed, boiled, passed through three separate filters, purified and sterilized.

Sterilization is carried out with UHT technique as required by EU norms. Sterilized gelatine is transferred to drying tunnel and after drying, it is stored as intermediate product with %10-12 moisture level.

In parallel with customers' demands, special blends are issued from intermediate products and tailor-made gelatines are prepared, meeting all the requirements.
