How Our Dog Chew Bones Are Made
Safe, carefully produced and fully traceable from start to finish
Many pet parents want to know what their dog is chewing. That's why we've created this simple guide to explain how our dog chews are produced, from the raw materials all the way to the finished product.
Throughout the process, we focus on safety, quality, hygiene and full traceability. Every step is documented, helping us ensure consistent quality and giving you greater transparency about what your dog is chewing.
Our goal is simple: to provide safe, high-quality dog chews that are made with care and can be enjoyed in everyday moments.
Careful Production, Step by Step
1. Responsible Raw Material Sourcing
Our dog chews are made from bovine hide. We source the hides only from approved suppliers operating within controlled supply chains that meet legal requirements, strict hygiene standards and our quality specifications.
Every incoming batch is identified with batch numbers and carefully documented, forming the first step of our traceability chain.
The origin of the hide may vary depending on the production location. Whenever possible, we source locally. When international sourcing is used, the same supplier approval, quality and traceability requirements always apply.
2. Cleaning and Preparation
Before production begins, the hide is carefully cleaned and prepared. This process typically includes washing, rinsing, trimming and removing any impurities. The material is then prepared for further processing under controlled hygienic conditions.
Every stage is recorded, allowing us to trace the movement and handling of each batch throughout the production process.
3. Cutting and Shaping
Once prepared, the hide is cut and shaped into different dog chew products. This work takes place in a controlled production environment using standardized procedures that help ensure consistent size, texture and quality.
Production batches remain clearly identified and separated throughout the process to support quality control and traceability.
4. Drying and Heat Treatment
The shaped chews are carefully dried and heat-treated under controlled conditions. This step helps reduce moisture, supports product stability and shelf life, and forms an important part of our safety process.
Key production parameters such as time and temperature are monitored and documented for every batch.
5. Quality Control and Safety Checks
Quality checks take place throughout production and continue until the finished product is approved. Our teams verify that each batch meets defined quality and safety standards before it can be released for packaging.
If needed, every finished batch can be traced through the entire production chain back to the original raw material.
6. Packing and Distribution
After final approval, the chews are weighed and packaged. Packaging information is linked to the production batch, allowing products to be identified throughout warehousing, distribution and sale.
We also monitor quality feedback after products reach the market, helping us continuously improve our products and processes.
