From brief to bag.
6 stages from an idea to a registered product in a dealer’s shop. VAN runs all 6, including PSQCA registration.
What happens, in order.
| What happens | |
|---|---|
| Feasibility | Market, crop, stage, target price, pack format, and the constraint you are actually trying to beat. It also covers the soil, crop and water of the territory the product is aimed at, so the formulation answers that ground rather than an average one. |
| Bench | Bench work in the VAN lab: ratio, form, coating, chelation, solubility, pH and compatibility. |
| Pilot | Produced on the same equipment that will run the commercial lot, so what works in the pilot still works at scale. |
| Trials | Trials on VAN’s research farms and, where you want them, on your own demonstration plots. |
| Dossier | PSQCA standard selection and the dossier. |
| Registration | Licensing, handled by VAN. 1 certificate, valid nationwide. |
After registration: commercial production, a certificate of analysis per lot, technical documentation and training material for your field team. Repeat batches run to the frozen specification. Any change to that specification is a documented change, not a quiet one.
The same documentation set VAN maintains for its own brands.
It already exists, rather than being assembled for you.
| Document | What it contains | When |
|---|---|---|
| Technical data sheet | Guaranteed analysis, directions and dosage, physical properties, packaging and storage. 1 page. | At specification freeze |
| Safety data sheet | 16-section GHS format, per-product hazard classification, both VAN addresses, revision history. | At specification freeze |
| Certificate of analysis | Physical status, moisture, particle size, pH and the chemical assays, each with specification, result and method. | Per production lot |
| Registration file | PS standard applied and the PSQCA manufacturing licence number. | On licence issue |
| Label artwork route | Declaration content and regulatory text; artwork execution to your brand guidelines. | Before first print |
Registration is built in, not handed back to you.
A formulation can be finished and a pilot can be good, and the product still misses its season because the licence takes a season to obtain. VAN treats registration as part of the build rather than as your problem afterwards. The same team that has taken VAN’s own products through PSQCA takes yours, and VAN holds 34 PSQCA licences to show it has done it: 22 on its own brands, against 8 Pakistan Standards, and 12 on products ready for partners.
