Industrial Techonogies: Manufacturing Formulations & Engineering Guide.

Industrial Technologies: Manufacturing Formulations & Engineering Guide.

This comprehensive book is designed for entrepreneurs, manufacturers, students,  professionals, technicians, institutions, and DIY formulators who want to acquire practical industrial skills in the manufacture of a wide range of quality products, including cosmetics, household products, processed foods, industrial chemicals, agricultural products, and engineering-related products.

In addition to providing this comprehensive book, we offer one-on-one practical training courses for each and every product in Nairobi, Kenya. These hands-on courses are suitable for both beginners and experienced manufacturers who want to develop real production skills, understand ingredient selection and handling, improve product quality, and gain confidence in manufacturing market-ready products.

Our goal is not only to teach formulas, but also to help participants understand production planning, costing, quality control, packaging, branding, product presentation, commercialization, and the steps required to work toward compliance with  KEBS  regulatory standards, and  ISO management-system certification.
