Supplement Weighing and Blending
In the world of supplement manufacturing, NAI pays the utmost attention to every detail. Precision is essential for us, from raw materials sourcing to the end product’s packaging. A critical step in this process is weighing and blending.
“As the first process step in manufacturing, precisely weighing out every single raw material is vital to GMP compliance. It ensures each batch of finished product consistently complies with quality standards and finished product specifications for ingredient input amounts and label claims.” -Maria Asfazadour, NAI Director of Production
Steps of the Supplement Weighing And Blending Process
A supplement formula’s fulfillment is translated into a work order for the manufacturing warehouse. Think of this work order as the meticulously crafted recipe sheet for a chef, detailing every ingredient and its precise measurement.
Once the formula is translated, raw materials are sourced from our expansive global supply chain, most of which is located in the United States. Each day, with unparalleled precision, these materials are weighed according to the exact specifications of the work order. Following the exact supplement formulation is critical; the results must remain error-free, ensuring the product meets label claim, as well as safety, effectiveness, and integrity standards.
For this reason, NAI deployed the accuracy of advanced machinery and automation. These machines uniformly blend the raw materials per the provided formula and are designed to maintain precise consistency. It is worth noting that blending is not a one-size-fits-all process. The blending time varies, depending on the product. Our technicians constantly monitor the bulk density of each product, sampling each blend and making tailored decisions on blending times and fill levels.
Why Is Blending so Critical?
Blending’s primary objective is to guarantee uniformity, ensuring every supplement batch dose is consistent in potency and quality. This uniformity is key for material efficiency and delivering an effective product to the end customer.
These processes, coupled with rigorous quality control, particularly in high-volume manufacturing, make NAI an industry leading supplement manufacturer.
