Manufacturing Facilities

The manufacturing facilities of Rubia are modernized to international standards. These facilities have been inspected and approved by regulatory authorities from the Thai Government’s Food & Drug Administration. Rubia’s manufacturing facilities have three separate factories – soap factory, cosmetics factory and confectionery factory. All have been certified for ISO 9001:2000.

		Soap Factory With its total capacity of 16,000 tons annually, Rubia is considered to be one of the largest soap contract manufacturers in Thailand and among ASEAN country. It produces soap noodle in-house to effectively control quality and manufacturing process and, more importantly, to offer high-quality soap to customers at a competitive and reasonable price.
		Cosmetic Factory Rubia completed renovations to its cosmetic plant in December 2003 to expand production capability and meet international standards. The cosmetic plant has been divided into 2 parts, the liquid lines with total capacity of 3,500 tons per year and powder lines with total capacity of 1,300 tons per year. The size of our mixing tank varies from 500 kilograms to 2,200 kilograms. Thus, our customers can choose production batch sizes that are most suitable for their requirements.
		Confectionery Factory The confectionery production process is fully automated from initial premixing of ingredients through cooking, forming, wrapping of individual candies and packing of the finished product. Hygiene and quality is particularly important with food products and these aspects are integrated into each step of the production process as well as being installed in the employees. The plant’s production process, as well as its hygiene, health and safety measures satisfy stringent international regulations, legislation of the government as well as the procedures governed by ISO 9001 (2000).

 Awards and Certification

In 1994, Rubia became one of the first manufacturers in Thailand to achieve the GMP (Good Manufacturing Practice) certificate from the Thai government’s Food & Drug Administration.

With a strong background of quality management, Rubia was able to implement ISO 9002 quality system in 1997. Certification was achieved within the target implementation period of 18 months from the British accreditation organization, Bureau Veritas Quality International (BVQI) in October 1998 and was renewed to comply with ISO 9001:2000 system in October 2002.
