ISO Class 7 Cleanroom Automated Packaging
Tashkent Export Terminal Validation
Every processing bay operates under positive air pressure with HEPA filtration, automated nitrogen-flushed packaging systems, and inline optical spectrometry to eliminate cross-contamination risks for confectionery and fine dried foods.
Target organoleptic integrity
Farm-to-manifest record recall
International Accreditation & Certifications
Audited annually by independent certification bodies. Authenticated copies available upon signing mutual NDA or submitting verifiable RFQ.
ISO 22000:2018
Food Safety Management System
Certified across whole-chain processing, hermetic container sealing, cold storage, and export freight preparation in accordance with global ISO registries.
HACCP
Hazard Analysis & Critical Control
Systematic preventive approach to food safety covering biological, chemical and physical hazards at every critical control point.
US FDA Registration
Food Facility Registration
Registered food facility compliant with US FDA FSMA requirements for import into the United States market.
Halal Certification
Islamic Dietary Compliance
Full Halal compliance across ingredients, processing and packaging, audited by an accredited Islamic certification body.
Organic & Non-GMO
Certified Organic Sourcing
Raw materials sourced from certified organic, non-GMO orchards with verified isotopic origin traceability.
Third-Party Inspection
SGS / Bureau Veritas
Independent pre-shipment inspection and laboratory verification by globally recognised third-party agencies.
The Four-Stage Validation Protocol
Charlotte maintains systematic gate checks at every phase of the value chain. No raw crop enters manufacturing, nor does any pallet leave customs staging, without physical verification.
Agricultural Screening
Direct procurement from certified partner farms in Fergana and Samarkand. Multi-residue pesticide tests, moisture calibration (<12%), and heavy metal ICP-MS screening.
Atmospheric Control
Processing occurs inside temperature-stabilized (18°C–20°C) rooms with air scrubbing. Workers follow sterile gowning protocols with automated foot-baths and air showers.
Optical & Metal Analysis
High-speed visual infrared sorters extract broken seeds and foreign matters. Dual-frequency metal detectors reject ferrous, non-ferrous, and stainless steel anomalies down to 0.8mm.
SGS Sealed Dossier
Prior to maritime container or refrigerated TIR trailer sealing, random composite samples are sealed and sent to accredited labs for Salmonella, E. Coli, and aflatoxin certificates.
Daily Microbiology & Organoleptic Validation
Our in-house sensory laboratory evaluates mouthfeel, browning index, sugar refraction (Brix°), and water activity ($a_w$) on every single batch before granting export release authorization. Complete test logs are archived for 36 months beyond expiry dates.
Interactive Batch Traceability Vault
Importers and customs brokers can query any shipping container or pallet lot code to verify production logs, inspection dates, moisture curves, and lab certificates.
