14/ 07/ 2025

Listen to online Stop   The European Business Association unites companies that believe in the power of partnership, sustainable development and quality in every detail. The history of interaction between the Association’s members – “Chemlaborreaktiv” and “Milk Alliance” – is a striking example of how cooperation between a responsible supplier of laboratory equipment and a food manufacturer with an impeccable reputation can ensure high quality for the consumer and sustainable development for business. For many years, the companies have been working side by side to make every yogurt, every cheese and every package of milk satisfy the highest safety and quality standards. Dialogue between industry leaders In June, the HLR demonstration center became a meeting place for specialists from key enterprises of the “Milk Alliance”: Yagotynsky butter plant, the “Yagotynske for Children” branch, Pyriatyn cheese factory and Zolotonosha Butter-making Combine. These brands are well known to the Ukrainian consumer, and their consistent quality is the result of daily work with high techniques. The meeting program covered both time-tested solutions and technological innovations. Participants had the opportunity to test CDR FoodLab express analyzers, get acquainted with the capabilities of gas and liquid chromatographs, and also try out new methods of microbiological water control from IDEXX Water. Focus on modern technologies The demonstration of systems for fast and accurate analysis of milk and dairy products from Bentley Instruments (the exclusive supplier in Ukraine is “Chemlaborreaktiv”), aroused exceptional interest. In particular, the BactoCount model enables us to appraise the hygienic quality of milk comprehensively, and the DairySpec model helps to determine up to 64 physicochemical parameters in less than a minute.   Solutions for the control of foreign inclusions were also discussed, namely metal detectors and X-ray systems from the German manufacturer Sesotec, which are already actively used at the enterprises of the “Milk Alliance”. Approved quality, approved partners  Both companies – “Chemlaborreaktiv” and “Milk Alliance” – focus on results and consumer trust in their work. In this respect, their values ​​coincide with the EBA approach: business development through professional standards, reliable solutions and honest partnership.

We started the time we organized the work of the laboratory. I am very grateful to the HLR for close cooperation, for the fact that we always feel customer support. Today we can be proud of using modern methods of researching dairy products and controlling technological processes.  Lyudmila Bordakova, Head of the quality department “Yagotynske for Children” In 2012, our laboratory underwent a complete reconstruction. The “Chemlaborreaktiv” company provided everything necessary for it: ​​from laboratory glassware, equipment, reagents to laboratory furniture. A gas chromatograph was also installed, which helps to determine the triglyceride composition at the enterprises of the “Milk Alliance”. We strive to continue producing high-quality and safe products for our consumers, so we hope for further fruitful cooperation!    Vitalina Okhten, Head of the production laboratory of the Yagotynsky butter plant “Milk Alliance” is a company aimed at European standards, and therefore, the control of foreign inclusions is not an option, but a necessity. That is why during the meeting we presented solutions that help to detect impurities promptly and guarantee product safety. The topic of chromatography and the opportunities it opens up in the analysis of raw materials and finished products was no less interesting for our partners. Their interest in specific solutions is an important signal for us about the trends that should be developed. Iryna Kirina, Head of the Industry Experts Department of the HLR “The cooperation between our companies has been going on for over 25 years – from the first supply of reagents more than two decades ago to comprehensively fitting laboratories out with furniture, equipment and metal detectors today. Along with the growth of our partner, our expertise has also grown – we always try to be one step ahead and keep our finger on the pulse of international quality standards and technological innovations to help in implementing the best global experience at our partners’ enterprises”.
