CHOICE
Monthly retail monitoring banned substance testing
programme for finished sports nutrition products.
Through our monthly retail monitoring and independent dietary supplements testing programme, alongside our third-party oversight of manufacturing facilities and processes, we help reduce the risk of banned substances and impurities entering nutrition products. This not only ensures these products have been manufactured to recognised international standards, it also limits the likelihood of taking banned and unsafe substances.
Informed Choice. Cleaner products, Clearer Conscience.
INGREDIENT
Banned substance testing programme for ingredients and raw
materials intended for sports nutrition products.
The Informed Ingredient programme was developed to minimise the risk of banned substance contamination with ingredients and raw materials intended for the sports nutrition industry. Informed Ingredient allows sports nutrition ingredient manufacturers to communicate to their customers, the finished product brands, that their ingredient has been regularly tested for the presence of a wide range of substances prohibited in sport and is safer to include in their product.
Quality products begin with an Informed Ingredient.
MANUFACTURER
Banned substance testing and quality assurance certification for facilities that manufacture and supply sports nutrition products and ingredients.
The Informed Manufacturer programme was developed to help minimise the risk of banned substance contamination within facilities that manufacture and supply sports nutrition products and ingredients. Certification allows third-party manufacturers to clearly communicate to their customers, the sports supplements brands, that their facility meets high quality control standards and has been assessed to minimise the risk of contamination with banned substances.
