Certifications and Standards
We hold BRCGS, ISO 22000, and HACCP certifications, demonstrating our commitment to global food safety and quality management. Our deep familiarity with pharmacopeial standards (including ChP, Ph. Eur., USP) and European regulations enables us to rigorously evaluate suppliers, ensuring robust quality control at the source.
I. International Certifications Empower Supplier Screening
BRCGS Food Safety Global Standard
Suppliers must implement full-chain traceability systems covering raw material procurement, production, warehousing, and logistics.
Mandatory contaminant control measures (e.g., metal detectors, X-ray screening) and allergen management protocols align with EU retailers’ stringent supply chain requirements.
ISO 22000 Food Safety Management System
Suppliers are required to adopt a farm-to-table risk management framework, including audits of sub-suppliers, environmental monitoring (temperature, humidity, sanitation), and finished product testing.
Integration of HACCP principles ensures dynamic monitoring of critical control points (e.g., sterilization temperature, additive dosage) to maintain raw material consistency.
II. Pharmacopeial Standards Enhance Raw Material Quality
Precision Application of Pharmacopeias
For herbal extracts and botanicals, Chinese Pharmacopoeia (ChP) governs tests for active compounds (polysaccharides, flavonoids), heavy metals (lead, arsenic), and pesticide residues to validate efficacy and safety.
European Pharmacopoeia (Ph. Eur.) defines limits for microbial contamination (e.g., zero tolerance for Salmonella) and solvent residues (e.g., ethanol ≤0.5%) in EU-bound products, preventing non-compliance penalties.
US Pharmacopeia (USP) criteria assess purity (e.g., ≥99% vitamin C content) and dissolution rates for North American market compliance.
III. Regulatory Compliance Ensures Market Readiness
Localized Implementation of EU Regulations
Under the EU Food Information Regulation (FIC), we verify supplier labeling accuracy (allergen declarations, nutrient claims) to mitigate legal disputes.
Compliance with the EU Novel Food Regulation requires rigorous evaluation of innovative ingredients (e.g., insect protein, specific probiotic strains) to confirm EFSA (European Food Safety Authority) approval prior to supplier onboarding.
Case Studies & Outcomes
Case 1: A probiotic supplier lacking HACCP certification failed to monitor sterilization parameters (e.g., 121°C for 15 minutes), resulting in live cell count deviations (±10% beyond contractual limits), leading to disqualification.
Case 2: A collagen raw material supplier claimed ChP compliance but was found to have substandard hydroxyproline content (8.5% vs. required ≥10%). After corrective actions, it was reinstated as an approved vendor.
This integrated system enables systematic identification of suppliers meeting safety, efficacy, and regulatory benchmarks, securing product quality and competitiveness from the outset.
