Quality of our goat milk products

Quality begins with the raw material, fresh goat milk. Dutch goat milk is famous for its superior quality, colour and taste. The milk is produced on a large scale, at professional dairy-goat farms. The quality is guaranteed by virtue of the high (authorities’) quality requirements imposed on the products; requirements that are much more stringent than those imposed in other EU countries. Goat milk is subject to strict supervision by the COKZ, the Netherlands controlling authority for milk and milk products.

 

Within the dairy-goat farming sector a chain-quality system exists, known as ‘Kwaligeit’ (or, in English, Qualigoat). This quality system extends to a number of activities involved in the production of goat milk: milking and storage, cleaning and disinfection, the environment and waste, animal feeding and water, the use of medicines, and the well-being of the animals.

 

This high-quality goat milk constitutes the basis for CBM’s goat milk products. The production process is subject to continual monitoring by the COKZ, who supervise compliance with the dairy legislation of the Netherlands. We also subject all our goat milk products to a comprehensive microbiological and chemical examination, so as to ensure compliance with our internal quality requirements and with the stringent requirements imposed by our customers. By taking precautionary measures during the manufacturing and by extended sampling and analysis after production, we can guarantee that our goat milk products are free of cow milk
