Frequently Asked Questions by North Macedonian Buyers
Clear answers regarding customs clearance, minimum orders, test methodology, and sample verification.
How are Torzi Biotech herbal extract shipments cleared through North Macedonian Customs (Customs Administration - Carina)?
Shipments into North Macedonia typically enter via Skopje International Airport or via overland transit from port entries such as Thessaloniki (Greece). We accompany all shipments with commercial invoices with designated Harmonized Tariff Schedule (HS) codes, full packing lists, Batch Certificate of Analysis (COA), Certificate of Origin (COO), and official Phytosanitary or Health Certificates to facilitate rapid customs release through the Food and Veterinary Agency (AHV) of North Macedonia.
What are your Minimum Order Quantities (MOQ) for pilot trials vs. commercial batches?
Understanding that formulation pilot tests and clinical trials require manageable volumes, our MOQ for active botanical extracts (such as Reishi, Lion's Mane, and Beta-Ecdysterone) starts as low as 1 kg to 5 kg. For large-scale manufacturing lines requiring commercial cost advantages, we provide standardized bulk packaging in 25 kg fiber drums with hermetically sealed double-layer food-grade polyethylene internal liners.
Do you supply organic-certified extracts verified for zero ethylene oxide (EtO) contamination?
Yes. European border control authorities rigorously inspect imports for ethylene oxide and 2-chloroethanol residues. Torzi Biotech applies advanced low-temperature steam sterilization, supercritical CO2 processing, and sanitary spray drying, completely avoiding EtO gas or gamma radiation. Every export batch can be supported with an accredited third-party GC-MS report confirming non-detectable status (<0.05 mg/kg).
Can you customize particle sizes (mesh size) for automated rotary tablet presses or sachet packing?
Yes. Particle physical dynamics are critical for flowability and compaction. Through our pin-mill and air classifier pulverization equipment, we can control mesh sizing between 80 mesh (suitable for functional tea blend suspensions) up to 200 mesh (micro-fine powder ideal for high-speed direct encapsulation and instant liquid dispersion).
How do you verify genuine active markers compared to generic spectrophotometric UV assays?
While many low-cost traders employ non-specific UV-Vis methods that misidentify native starches or adulterants as active polysaccharides, our analytical lab uses validated High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) and the enzymatic Megazyme assay. This ensures that when you order 95% Curcumin or 40% Mushroom Beta-Glucans, the bioactive compounds are quantitatively authentic and chemically verified.
