- Our Facility
Amano Enzyme USA (AEU) moved to a new facility in January of 2003 to accommodate our growth and expand our services as a enzyme supplier.
The brand new, custom built facility is 25,000 sq.ft in total including office space, a research laboratory and state-of-the-art warehousing.
The Warehouse....
The warehouse is fully equipped and set up to handle shipments from a few grams to multi-ton container loads. It is protected by video surveillance at all entrances and a motion activated alarm system. Although the products are manufactured in Japan, AEU's warehouse is able to store large quantities of many of our products, thus cutting your lead times down. 
The warehouse contains a secured cold storage unit (cold room) that has 5000 sq.ft. of storage space. The cold room is cGMP compliant and validated to maintain optimum quality of our products. The cold room is also monitored by video surveillance and is secured by its own alarm system that is separate from the main building. The cold room is also monitored constantly to maintain specific temperature and humidity levels. This system is supported by a separate back up generator in case of power failure. The cold room is also approved, by the OU, for storage of kosher products. We have taken steps to ensure that the products we sell are of the highest level of quality and are protected from contamination at all times.
To further maintain the highest standards of quality, AEU is equipped with a state-of-the-art clean room where the enzymes are handled. Anytime an enzyme container is opened (for re-packaging, etc.) it is done in our clean room facility to minimize contamination and exposure to our personnel. The clean room is secured with video surveillance and an alarm systems just as the cold room is. The clean room contains a gowning area, staging area and 2 air showers (one for product and one for personnel).
