HELFE stands for quality and reliability in the implementation of contract work. With our experience and state-of-the-art technology, we implement your requirements precisely – from the selection of the best raw materials to careful processing.

What is possible?

Development and Analytics

  • Production of formulations on a laboratory scale
  • conducting stability tests
  • Quality control of raw materials, laboratory and production batches by determining pH value, viscosity, density, dry residue, optical control using a microscope (e.g. droplet size and distribution in emulsions)
  • Quantitative Determination of Active Ingredients in Extracts by HPLC

Extraction and Distillation

  • Production of plant extracts (also as a contract contract)
  • Percolators for different batch sizes are available (between 1kg and 200kg / batch)
  • Different solvents (also combinations) are possible – we only use undenatured alcohol (96%) for extract production
  • The distillation plant can produce concentrates of the extracts using a gentle process ("Centrifugal Thin Film" process)
  • HPLC is used to check whether and to what extent the relevant active ingredients can be concentrated in the concentrate

Production

  • Production of liquid, semi-solid and solid formulations: bath additives and scented baths, shower oils, shower gels and shampoos, gels for various applications (face and body care, roll-ons, ...), emulsions with different viscosities (fluid, lotion, cream, ointment, butter, ..), solid and powdered products
  • Batch sizes between 1 kg and 300 kg per batch
  • Powder press for the production of e.g. bath tablets – throughput approx. 1000 tablets / h
  • Contract manufacturing of finished recipes or development and production of new products according to customer requirements

Filling and Packaging

  • Filling of liquids, creams, gels and powders
  • Hot filling also possible
  • Tube filler with capper (aluminum tubes) and simultaneous embossing of MHD and/or batch
  • Automatic labeling and batch printing using hot stamping stamps
  • Alternatively, batch and/or MHD can be printed on finished products using inkjet

Production Control and Batch Traceability

  • Traceability through cross-company ERP system from the pharmaceutical industry
  • Mapping of all work steps - from purchasing to finished product shipping (including picking) as well as production planning, product data management and accounting
  • Raw materials / packaging / semi-finished products / bulks / finished products are batch-managed and provided with a barcode
  • Production monitoring through weighing control directly in the production system and barcode
  • Complete batch traceability from the finished product to the raw material.
