Quality Assurance

At Tipperary Co-operative, quality and food safety are of fundamental importance to us.
That is why we have  implemented stringent quality control systems that ensure that our produce is always safe, always wholesome and always completely traceable.
EU legislation specifies that everyone involved in the food production cycle, is responsible for its safety.
So, in order to maintain premium quality milk supplies at all times, we start with our farmers – all of whom subscribe to the essential EU regulations and standards, as well as our Co-op’s additional quality control processes such as farm monitoring and sample testing.
But far from being complacent about our high standards, we regularly update and review our ‘Milk Quality/Composition Regulations’ to reflect the latest food science research and changes in EU food regulations and requirements.
And, as a result of our tough monitoring and testing programme, we are absolutely confident that when milk reaches our processing facilities, we have the very safest and very finest produce available .
