Our production facilities feature a pharmaceutical grade bin
system designed to help eliminate the possibility of direct and
cross-contamination. The stainless steel bins reduce exposure and the need to
transfer materials from one container to another, and they reduce the amount of
handling our products experience. After use, each bin is cleaned in special
bin-washing rooms. Using filtered water, we wash each bin with detergent and
pure water rinses. Clean bins are then taken to a specially constructed drying
room, which is heated to 140 degrees Fahrenheit. HEPA-filtered air eliminates
the chance of contamination as the bins dry.
Sealed bins are then taken to the mixing room where they are attached to the bin hoist and mixer. The bin is raised and gently rolled by the mixer to create an even blend. Tooling in the lid of the bin helps to stir the materials as the bin is rolled. This method provides excellent mixing efficiency and preserves the integrity of individual granules.
Once a V3 product has been produced, each lot is
statistically sampled and the finished product is audited by Quality Assurance
inspectors for bulk weight, bottle count, bottle sealing and legible lot
numbers. Samples are sent to the QA labs, so scientists can complete testing
according to our finished product specifications. After all tests are
completed, certificates of analyses are signed by QA. When a product
successfully passes the finished product audit, QA will release it. The batch
record and a sample of the finished product are then retained for future
reference. If a customer has a question about their specific canister of
ProArgi-9+, bottle of Mistify or bottle of PhytoLife , QA can refer to the
retention sample of the lot in question.
