The richness of our beautiful country’s flora “As the Helvacızade Group of Companies, in Konya, we are happy to send our products, developed and produced in our Zade Vegetable Oil Refining Facilities equipped with the most advanced technologies, to nearly 60 countries around the world. Zade Plants, with its production capacity and 16 different quality and the system certifications is in a prominent position worldwide. With the developed countries turning to herbal treatment, the rising trend of “returning to the nature” both in the world and in Turkey, added to “the richness of our beautiful country’s flora” helped us in our decision to direct all of our knowhow and potential to the field of nutritional supplements.
Support the growth of a healthy generation During our nearly five-year period of research activities at home and abroad, we have appreciated the sources and wealth of our country. We observed that many in countries such as Germany where herbal products are commonly preferred and recommended by health professionals, many plants used as pharmaceutical raw material in alternative medicine originated from Turkey. These findings encouraged us in our mission to “support the growth of a healthy generation” and strengthened our belief that we are on the right track. Our first and most important remark at the beginning of our efforts was that because of production without accurate and scientific information, most of the products marketed as herbal supplements in our country caused more harm than benefit for health. Being close to the people, pharmacists who were “the right persons of reference” for instructing and guiding the society in the health field were in need of safely advisable products. In Turkey, being the only group of professionals trained on herbal products, the pharmacists’ full support was required to raise awareness in this area. The most important step was that the products should have been followed closely from the moment the seed was thrown into the field. Using the right plant, through specific forms and specific quality standards, production under standardized, high-hygienic conditions were needed. In this respect, we investigated almost every corner of Turkey and we contacted with all parties, including scientists, experts, producers and people who have been interested in herbal therapy. Soft capsules After all of these evaluations, with the Ege University Pharmaceutical Research and Pharmacokinetics Implementation Center (ARGEFAR)’s leadership, following steps were taken for the Zade Vital brand and R & D works has started. Being started as a social responsibility project of the Helvacızade Group, Zade Vital ® brand continued to grow to exceed its limits. Our goal to provide the right product as well as our market researches on the consumer’s expectations helped us to develop the widest range of “soft capsules” for the first time in the world as well as the liquid forms. Zade Laboratories with 16 different quality and system documentations, developed products which were under control during all stages, starting from purchase of raw materials, through packaging till reaching end users. Stability analyses have been performed for 2 years by ARGEFAR, and the quality of all products have been tested by ARGEFAR as well. Packaged end products were also subjected to 17 different analyses. While carrying out R & D work diligently, we started to work on bottles, packaging and brand identity. Zade Vital’s logo and packaging designs were chosen by the faculty of pharmacy students among over 20 alternatives. The search for the packages of Zade Vital Series with 170 different forms at the beginning, were completed in 3 years.”
