The clear gel is collected in stainless steel vats and then piped through to large mixing tanks, also made of stainless steel. These tanks hold as much as of the gel. The all important, patented stabilization process prevents the loss of nutrients and other beneficial element found in Aloe Vera. After the stabilization process is completed, the gel is placed in one of the stainless steel trailers and prepared for health and cosmetic products. |
