Over 20 years
ago the Central Veterinary Research Laboratory (CVRL) in Dubai
commenced research into camels and camel milk, with specific aim
of obtaining scientific proof of the incredible health benefits
indicated by the traditional Bedouin staple diet of camel milk
and dates.
Work commenced
on creating Emirates Industry for Camel Milk & Products (EICMP)
in 2003, and by 2006 the milk production facility was completed.
The EICMP facility is unique - it's the world's first
sophisticated camel milking plant, incorporating
state-of-the-art technology and camel research.
Specially
designed equipment for milking camels has been developed to
optimise milk production and increase the comfort of the camels
during the procedure. The state-of-the-art UAE production
facility also meets the most stringent EU health and hygiene
regulations.
Emirates
Industry for Camel Milk & Products now has a full herd of happy
and healthy camels producing life-enriching camel milk for human
consumption. Camelicious is the
first all natural and healthy milk product to be produced by
EICMP and is available in distinctive 250ml, 500ml and 1 litre
bottles at all leading supermarkets. |
