Quality and Verification

Introduction 

Quality in supplementation cannot be assumed. 
It is not a promise and not a marketing claim. 

Quality must be designed, checked, and repeated. 
Every single time. 

This article explains how quality is safeguarded, why testing must be structural, and why verification matters more than statements. 

Where quality begins 

Quality does not start at production. 
It starts before. 

Each raw ingredient is selected based on predefined criteria, including: 

Only ingredients that fully meet specification are approved. 

From raw material to production 

Approved ingredients are delivered to a production facility operating under ISO 22000 guidelines. 

Packaging materials are also required to meet food safety standards. 

All processes are: 

This ensures consistency and repeatability across batches. 

Independent batch testing 

After production, each batch is tested by independent laboratories. 

Testing includes screening for: 

Only batches that meet all specifications are released. 

Athlete safety verification 

Each batch is subsequently tested under the NZVT program. 

Testing is performed by: 

This confirms the absence of prohibited substances and suitability for tested athletes. 

Fulfilment and storage control 

Approved batches are delivered to a fulfilment centre operating under HACCP standards. 

Procedures include: 

Once a product leaves the fulfilment centre, it does not return to circulation. 
This maintains full control over quality and traceability. 

Why verification matters 

Statements are easy to make. 
Verification requires systems, documentation, and discipline. 

Quality is not a claim. 
It is the outcome of a repeatable process.
