Quality Control
Ensuring your product's integrity
Regis' quality control (QC) department evaluates product integrity while allowing instant troubleshooting for our production staff. We run two shifts of QC chemists to support the two shift production schedule. This guarantees quicker turnaround and better allocation of resources.
