State-of-the-Art Manufacturing
In an industry where few companies make their own vitamins, Solgar’s manufacturing facility meets the strictest standards for machinery, procedures, quality control, and environmentalism. In fact, Solgar has received GMP (Good Manufacturing Practice) certificates from the Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA), an authority of the Australian government known for the most stringent standards. These standards exceed those required by the supplement industry, but we feel they are necessary to provide our customers with the highest quality products possible.

Quality Control
Solgar has high standards for quality. We have a rigorous quality control system in place to test products at every stage, from raw material to the finished product. All materials coming into our facility are subject to stringent tests to ensure they are the highest quality. Any materials that don’t meet our standards are rejected and immediately sent back to our suppliers. Solgar’s on-site Quality Assurance Laboratory ensures that each product leaving our door meets our Gold Standard for purity and potency.

Below are some of the things that help us ensure the quality of our products.

• HEPA Air Filtration System. Each of our blending, tableting, and encapsulating suites is supplied with HEPA-filtered air to help prevent raw material powder from inadvertently appearing in a product being made in an adjacent room.
• USP Water Purification System. Solgar’s USP water filtration system uses filtration and reverse osmosis to remove organic compounds, pollutants, and chemicals. This system also ensures that the water used in our manufacturing process meets a Kosher standard.
• Cleanliness. Solgar disassembles and cleans every piece of machinery after each formula change. In some cases, the equipment is broken down into hundreds of parts and may take up to 8 hours to clean and reassemble. Imagine disassembling and cleaning every piece of your refrigerator, toaster, stove, microwave, and dishwasher between breakfast, lunch, dinner, or even a midnight snack! We also use food-grade, environmentally friendly green cleaners to sanitize the equipment between batches.
• Kosher Certified. Solgar selected KOF-K Kosher Supervision, the international organization that follows the strictest laws of the kosher observance, to certify our products.
• Recyclable Amber Glass Bottles. Although these “old style” medicine bottles cost more, Solgar uses them because they protect against heat, light, and moisture, thereby preserving nutrient potency.

At Solgar, quality is more than just a word; it’s a way of life. Generations of families have trusted our products since 1947 and we value that trust. We will continue to honor that trust by providing the finest quality, science-based nutritional supplements possible.
