All of our raw materials must pass stringent quality controls before
they are utilized. In addition, we use only those precursor materials
that are of the highest quality that pass our in house quality
inspection.
Quality Control
All raw materials are tested for purity prior to production. Quality
control engineers have the authority to reject any product during any
stage of production that does not adhere to our strict quality
standards. All personnel follow explicit written protocols that are
strictly enforced during the manufacturing process. All steps during the
manufacturing process are documented and reviewed by quality control
specialists. Manufacturing equipment is properly maintained and cleaned
on a predetermined schedule which is documented in company logs for
review by the Department of Agriculture. Thishelps to ensure the
absence of any contamination during the manufacturing process.
Production records associated with each unit of a product including all
raw materials used are filed for two years past the expiration date.
Further quality control is demonstrated in the following manner:
Product analysis - is recorded for each product that is
manufactured. This analysis contains the specific components of the
herbal product including a lot number for each of the ingredients and
the production methods used.
Raw materials - are purchased only from reputable wholesalers.
Each raw material in our products must come with a Certificate of
Analysis provided from the supplier. Our in house quality
assurance team also analyzes the raw materials for authenticity.
Packaging material - all packaging materials are purchased only
from reputable wholesalers. Specific quality assurance personal ensure
that all labels are assigned to the proper products manufactured to
avoid any confusion. All new labels are cross checked with the original
master label to ensure there has been no mistakes during the printing
process.
Lot Numbers - once an order request has been received the herbal
supplement to be manufactured is entered in the production records and a
lot number is assigned. The raw materials are subsequently released to
the pharmacy once all products have been checked for authenticity.
Bowtrol Manufacturing Guidelines
In addition to the above outlined protocols for the physical aspect of
the manufacturing facility. Bowtrol Supplements also adheres to the
following manufacturing guidelines to ensure the utmost quality control:
Blending and Granulation - all equipment used for in the process
of mixing and granulation are inspected by the director of operations
prior to use. Raw materials are then inspected for the final time and
the lots are then processed using the strict written guidelines for each
herbal product. Following granulation and blending the powder blends are
stored in specifically designed containers to ensure freshness and to
avoid any contamination. Once again the director of operations ensures
that all new blends are labeled appropriately.
Encapsulation and Compression - all equipment used in the
process of mixing and granulation are inspected by the director of
operations prior to use. Raw materials are then inspected for the final
time and the lots are then processed using the strict written guidelines
for each herbal product. Once a test unit has been processed a sample
unit is issued to quality assurance to be compared to retained samples to insure product integrity. Once the new unit has been approved by quality
assurance the full line production may begin. Quality assurance
inspections are conducted using set protocols for the capsules. As with
the blending and granulation process the capsules are stored in
specifically designed containers to ensure freshness and to avoid any
contamination. The director of operations ensures that all new capsules
are labeled appropriately.
Liquids - follow the same stringent protocol as the the above
mentioned blending, granulation, encapsulation and compression
procedures.
Packaging and Inspection - upon completion of the processing, the final
product is inspected again by the quality control staff, broken tablets,
over filled capsules, and other defective finished products are removed
from the lot. Products released by the quality control staff are
subsequently either packaged for bulk storage or bottled and labeled for
consumer use (labels contain the appropriate information as required by
the Federal Drug Administration, batch numbers are logged). All finished
products are properly labeled and closed with a tamper proof seal. The
quality control unit also retains samples of raw materials (for one year
past the expiration date of the last product they are used in) and
finished products (for one year past the product expiration date) are
maintained under control conditions. All of our liquid products follow
the same stringent control standards where applicable.
Final Products - all final products are stored in quarantine in a
climate controlled environment until final delivery to the customer.
All of Bowtrol Supplements are manufactured using Good
Manufacturing Practices set forth by the US Federal Drug Administration.
In addition, both scheduled and surprise inspections by the quality
control staff during different aspects of the manufacturing process help
to ensure specific quality, strength and purity for both the raw
materials and the finished supplements.
