Q: Is your facility GMP certified?

Our facility is GMP Certified: A GMP (Good Manufacturing Practices) certification for a supplement facility signifies adherence to stringent quality standards set by regulatory authorities, such as the FDA. Achieving this certification involves the following key elements: Facility and Equipment: The facility must be maintained in a clean, sanitary condition with properly calibrated and maintained equipment to prevent contamination and ensure accurate dosages. Personnel Training: All employees must be adequately trained in hygiene, manufacturing procedures, and quality control measures to ensure consistent product quality. Production Processes: Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) must be established and strictly followed during all stages of production, from raw material procurement to packaging, to ensure product consistency and safety. Quality Control: Rigorous testing of raw materials, in-process materials, and finished products must be conducted to verify their identity, purity, strength, and composition. Batch records must be meticulously maintained to track production and ensure traceability. Documentation: Comprehensive documentation practices must be in place to ensure every step of the manufacturing process is recorded and can be reviewed for compliance, quality control, and troubleshooting. Audits and Inspections: Regular internal audits and external inspections are required to verify compliance with GMP standards and identify areas for improvement. Being GMP certified means that the facility consistently produces high-quality supplements that meet regulatory requirements and consumer expectations for safety, efficacy, and integrity. This certification builds trust with consumers and partners, ensuring that the products are manufactured to the highest standards.

Q: Is your facility FDA registered?

Yes, we use an FDA registered facility. Registration Requirement : Under the Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA), all facilities that manufacture, process, pack, or store food and dietary supplements for consumption in the U.S. must register with the FDA. This registration must be renewed every two years Compliance with Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) : While registration does not imply FDA approval or endorsement, it does indicate that the facility is subject to FDA inspection and must comply with Current Good Manufacturing Practices (cGMP). These regulations ensure that products are consistently produced and controlled according to quality standards. Key aspects include maintaining clean facilities, properly training personnel, and keeping detailed records of production processes Inspections and Audits : FDA-registered facilities are subject to random inspections to verify compliance with regulatory standards. During these inspections, the FDA checks for adherence to cGMP, proper labeling, and the absence of contamination or adulteration. Failure to comply can result in enforcement actions, including warning letters, fines, or product seizures. Documentation and Traceability : Registered facilities must maintain comprehensive documentation of their manufacturing processes. This includes batch records, testing results, and compliance documentation, ensuring traceability and accountability throughout the production process. This documentation is crucial for audits and in the event of a product recall. By registering with the FDA, a facility demonstrates its commitment to producing safe and high-quality products, although it does not mean that the FDA has approved the products themselves.
