The Solgar Gold Standard™
Solgar has been manufacturing fine quality nutritional supplements for over 60 years in an industry that is constantly evolving. Throughout these changes, Solgar have never lost sight of Solgar's original mission - to provide consumers with the highest quality nutritional products and information to help promote optimal health. Solgar's attention to detail from manufacturing through distribution has enabled us to set, maintain, and continually raise the Gold Standard™ for quality nutritional supplements, education, and service. The Solgar Gold Standard™ is much more stringent than the government requires.
Researched, Science-Based Products. Solgar is known globally for producing innovative, science-based, efficacious products. All Solgar products have been thoroughly researched by Solgar's R & D department. Solgar have a team of experts dedicated exclusively to research. Solgar also sponsor research on existing and potential new products by donating funding, Solgar's products, and Solgar's experts to studies across the world.
State-of-the-Art Manufacturing. Solgar's state-of-the-art manufacturing facility meets pharmaceutical standards for machinery, procedures, quality control, and environmentalism. These standards exceed those required by the supplement industry, but Solgar feel they are necessary to provide Solgar's customers with the best quality products possible. With Solgar's own manufacturing, laboratory, and distribution facilities, Solgar ensures quality throughout the entire process.
Quality Control. Solgar has high standards for quality. Solgar have a rigorous quality control system in place to test products at every stage, from raw material to finished product. All materials coming into Solgar's facility are subject to stringent tests to ensure they are the highest quality; any that don't meet Solgar's standards are rejected and immediately sent back to Solgar's suppliers. A rarity in the industry, Solgar has its own on-site Quality Laboratory that ensures that each product leaving Solgar's door meets Solgar's Gold Standard™ for excellence. Solgar don't just do one test on Solgar's products. Solgar do many.
USP Water Purification System. Solgar invested over $1 million in a state-of-the-art USP reverse osmosis water purification system - widely considered the finest type of filtration available. This isn't required by Good Manufacturing Practices (GMPs), but the Solgar Gold Standard™ requires that Solgar have the best system possible.
HEPA Air Filtration System. All of the air that circulates through the Solgar facility passes through a bank of HEPA filters that remove 99.9% of airborne particulates. Both air and water samples are routinely tested in Solgar's in-house laboratory.
Cleanliness. Solgar disassembles and cleans every piece of machinery after each formula change. In some cases, the equipment is broken down into hundreds of parts and may take up to eight hSolgar'ss to clean and reassemble. Solgar also use food-grade, environmentally friendly cleaners to sanitize equipment betSolgaren batches.
Gluten Free. Most Solgar products are gluten free.
Kosher Certified. Solgar selected KOF-K Kosher Supervision, an international organization that follows the strictest laws of the kosher observance, to certify Solgar's products.
Halal Certified. Solgar chose the Halal Food Authority (HFA), a U.K.-based organization that adheres to the strictest laws of Halal, to certify Solgar's products.
Aqueous Coated Tablets. Solgar was one of the first in the Natural Products Industry to integrate a natural, water-based coating for all of Solgar's coated-tablet products as an alternative to using the more common solvent-based coating agent, shellac (pharmaceutical glaze). This natural, water-based coating improves disintegration and dissolution, providing better absorption of the nutrients.
Recyclable Amber Glass Bottles. Solgar's 100% recyclable glass bottles are non-leaching, non-porous, and odorless. Although these "old style" medicine bottles cost more, Solgar uses them because they protect against heat, light, and moisture, thereby preserving nutrient potency.
