Compounding

• 1 Large batches of shampoo are made in a designated area of the manufacturing plant. Here workers, known as compounders, follow the formula instructions to make batches that can be 3,000 gal (11,000 1) or more. Raw materials, which are typically provided in drums as large as 55 gal (200 1) or in 50-lb (23-kg) bags, are delivered to the compounding area via forklift trucks. They are poured into the batch tank and thoroughly mixed.

Quality control check

• 3 After all the ingredients are added to the batch, a sample is taken to the Quality Control (QC) lab for testing. Physical characteristics are checked to make sure the batch adheres to the specifications outlined in the formula instructions. The QC group runs tests such as pH determination, viscosity checks, and appearance and odor evaluations.

Filling

• 5 At the start of the filling line, empty bottles are put in a large bin called a hopper. Here, the bottles are physically manipulated until they are correctly oriented and standing upright. They are then moved along a conveyor belt to the filling carousel, which holds the shampoo.
• 6 The filling carousel is made up of a series of piston filling heads that are calibrated to deliver exactly the correct amount of shampoo into the bottles. As the bottles move through this section of the filling line, they are filled with shampoo.
• 7 From here the bottles move to the capping machine. Much like the bin that holds the empty bottles, the caps are also put in a hopper and then correctly aligned. As the bottles move by the caps are put on and twisted tight.

Production Process

1. Our shampoo bottles are created from recycled products that arrive to our industry and with an specialized machine they are created


2. There is an specialyzed area in the industry that creates the shampoo. Those are created first based on surveys on what the customer will want.


3. We first select the ingredients of the shampoo, for example of what the scent will be (if we want that shampoo to be of roses we put  rose petals into a machine that squeezes the aroma and it created the scent into a liquid)



4. We have people every morning that creates the shampoo consistency and fills them into the bottles.


5. There is a band with the filled bottles, the band will pass through a machine that will pour the scent inside and the designied colouring.


6. Another machine will be at the end of the band and will close the bottles.


7. After that, the bottles are transported to another area, where a machine will shake them so they can mix their properties all together.

8. Finally the shampoo will be transported to be evaluated and sell.
