Nutri Avenue Quality Control
Quality begins with the ingredients. We source ingredients from suppliers who we have worked with before where possible, and we always demand supporting CoAs and evidence of quality standards. Once the ingredients arrive, they may be sent to 3rd party labs as appropriate for further testing and certification. Checks are also carried out by us, including checking color, scent, and weight.
Quality Audits
This is our checks and balances system that ensures compliance to all quality assurance requirements. We carefully vet our suppliers for qualification and quality. Planned site visits are conducted 12-14 times per year based on risk analysis. Our purchasing department evaluates on-time delivery, customer service, invoicing, and more.
Quality Assurance
Our quality assurance team is responsible for our quality management process. They define standards and put processes in place to ensure that all quality requirements are able to be fulfilled to meet both internal and external specifications.
Chemistry
Our chemists perform multiple assays to guarantee that our products meet or exceed label claims and to ensure the viability of the product through its “best used by” date using state-of-the-art instrumentation in testing raw materials and final product mixes. They also run many tests, including vitamin C, vitamins B1 and B2, pepsin, bile salts, water activity, moisture, carotene, iodine, phosphorus, and chloride. Such testing capabilities allow Standard Process to verify the identity, purity, and strength of our products and their raw materials.
Traceability and Trust
Our traceability process helps Standard Process follow raw materials from our fields and our suppliers, through production, to the customer. This process underscores our commitment to safety and quality. We use lot codes to trace the origins of the sourced ingredients found in each of our products. All ingredient data is captured in a final lot code that is printed on the package. Our laboratory information management systems assist our quality control team in monitoring those ingredients throughout our entire process to ensure our high standard of quality is consistently maintained.
