Efugo Extractive Industry's quality control for the Castor oil production begins from the measures they put in place in acquiring the Castor seed and goes down to the point of extraction.
The quality procedures for oil production include:
- Seed Acquisition: To have a high-quality product, the company has out growers who grow a specified variety of Castor seed using the planting guidelines provided by the company
- Cleaning: The Castor seeds from the farm are not used directly. They are first stored in the winnowing chamber where it will be dried and clean in 3 stages which includes destoning before it is now conveyed into the factory for oil extraction
- Production Process: Production process for every production is relatively constant and consistent. There is a standard operation procedure (SOP) to be followed, so even with a change of personnel, quality is not affected. The SOP is being reviewed from time to time for improvement in quality.
- Testing: On every production, the products are tested in a worldwide recognized lab. The company looks at the water and sediment content, density, acid number and iodine value of the soil.
