Manufacturing Facilities
Whenever our customers everywhere in the whole buy and use a CNI product, they are assured of the highest quality and performance. But what goes on behind the scenes are some of our most comprehensive and intricate manufacturing process which many of our customers are unaware of.
CNI is one of the first companies to use the Intermediate Bulk Container (IBC) system for food production, ensuring that powder-based products are free from any contamination.
CNI was selected to be one of the top 3 cosmetic over-the-counter (OTC) GMP factories by the National Pharmaceutical Control Bureau of Malaysia.
All machines in CNI's factory facilities are sophisticated and state-of-the-art.
CNI's factories and production facilities are GMP, HACCP, OHSAS, ISO 17025 and ISO 14001:2004 accredited.
Beyond all our quality achievements are some brief takes on what goes on behind the scenes, and just how much we'll go towards quality achievement and assurance.
Product Design & Development
The success of any and every product of undisputed quality first begins in product design and development. Our marketing intelligence, market feasibility and other studies will be the launch pad of any new product. We begin by looking at trend leaders, competitive offerings and product realities before we put pen to paper and create compelling product concepts that are designed to sell. Finally, we render complete Computer Aided Designs (CADs) and pass them on to our factory product sampling teams to realize our designs. Often, we work closely with our suppliers in getting their input to tailor our products to their requirements. From start to finish, we try to bring maximum flexibility to the design the process to make the best and most appropriate products to our customers.
Quality Assurance
At CNI - our QA process is a continuous method whereby we follow the manufacturing process from the beginning to the end to safeguard product quality. Our QA method starts in the product development phase where we create products that are designed to the highest standards. Once the design process is completed, all of our products undergo a Product Testing phase at our testing labs – where the product is tested for Product Integrity and Packaging Tests.
For example, for our coffee and beverage pouches, we only use laminated aluminium foil film and bags have great seal abilities, good chemical and water resistance. Its advantages are excellent as they are opaque, with good oxygen barrier, well formed, and maintain fresh the content with long-term preservation.
For individual beverage stick wrappers, we use laminated PET/PE/AL/LL foil. It is widely used in high speed production for flexible packaging because of its ability for increasing efficiency. Laminated aluminium foil roll is also resistant to water and many chemical components. It also protects sensitive products from light, is a good oxygen and moisture barrier, and helps extend the product's shelf life over a long period.
Product labelling and packaging – ensures that consumers have complete access to information on the content and composition of products, in order to protect their health and other interests. Other information may include its origin or intended use. Some foodstuffs, such as genetically modified organisms, allergenic foods, or even various beverages, are adhered strictly to their specific regulation.
As production processes and technologies evolve with time, CNI continues to invest in the latest production facilities to keep up with these changes – ensuring that every product offered by CNI fulfils the promise of quality, value and performance.
Supplier Sourcing
In order to ensure that our Product Design is produced at the high level quality that we demand we only work with the best raw material suppliers. To verify our suppliers, our Sourcing and QA teams visit each of our new factories to inspect their capabilities & qualifications. Using the quality standards demanded by our customers, we ensure that each of our suppliers comply with all of these criteria. Each factory is measured for production standards, quality assurance, ethical standards, social and environmental standards, packaging capabilities, and production history. We then work with each factory to address their deficiencies, if any, and bring them up to our standard. Ultimately, we will only commit ourselves to work with the best suppliers that are able to supply the highest production standard at the most competitive price.
