Research & Development
Research & Development has a high priority at Provita and ongoing programmes are in place to develop and improve existing products. Provita’s highly trained technical staff work on site and in collaboration with specialist advisors and laboratory facilities. The company has research links with university partners in the fields of applied biotechnology and pharmaceutics where two new product development projects are currently ongoing.

This enables collaboration of world class calibre on leading edge research projects which will lead to a new generation of probiotic and animal health products for the twenty first century.

The Research & Development Department conducts surveys and works in conjunction with the sales team to ensure that the products developed meet with the end user’s requirements. New products are thoroughly tested prior to launching to guarantee quality, efficacy, safety and ease of application to the user.

Production
All products are manufactured to the highest standard at Provita’s purpose built modern plant. The factory’s facilities and procedures comply with the UK pharmaceutical licensing authorities’ exacting standards for the production of veterinary medicines.

Provita's production activities adhere to good manufacturing practice, which ensures that all products are consistently manufactured to the required specifications. Provita has semi-automated facilities for manufacture, blending and packaging of liquid products, oils, pastes, creams and powders.

Quality Assurance
There is an integrated quality control system from raw material intake to finished product batch release, to ensure that all materials meet agreed specifications. Quality Control analysis is carried out on site, using a fully equipped laboratory to carry out bacteriological and chemical analyses. This is backed up by analyses carried out by independent contract laboratories.

The Quality Control staff are qualified microbiologists, and using Quality Control and production procedures developed at Provita, probiotics with guaranteed bacterial activities and extended shelf life are produced. Procedures are constantly under review to ensure maximum efficiency.

We are constantly striving to increase our product range and have highly trained staff on site to ensure that the quality of new products is of the highest standard.
