What is a GMP Certification?- Good manufacturing practice.

First of all, GMP stands for 'Good Manufacturing Practices, this term involves all of the practices involved in the manufacturing of a range of different products. Products include food-related items, beverages, cosmetics, pharmaceutical products, medical devices, and in our case, supplements.

The GMP guidelines ensure that our products are consistently produced and controlled to the standards they have set we need to comply with GMP as the quality needs to be a high standard to minimize the risks of any negative effects on our quality standards. This process is done by regular inspections before the final product is made.

The GMP Guidelines provide criteria that must be met when it comes to manufacturing these products designed to minimize the risk of cross-contamination. The main purpose of GMP is to prevent any harm being caused to the end-user of the product when broken down, this includes ensuring it is free from contamination, is consistent in its production, manufacturing has been well documented, staff trained appropriately, and that the product has been quality checked at various points in the manufacturing processes. All of these factors make up the core values of what GMP means and also the procedures we must follow to meet GMP requirements. This means that in order to pass a GMP Audit, you must have all of these procedures in place.

Chapter 4

Why is GMP so important?

Having a GMP Certification is extremely important as they provide us with strict guidelines to follow to ensure the safety of our products for our consumers. Without guidelines such as GMP in place, that safety is not ensured.

GMP doesn't only assure safety for consumers, it is also important for us, the manufacturer. It gives us protection against the potential liability of manufacturing a product that causes harm to a customer as we have taken the necessary precautions to prevent this from happening. On top of that, it gives us a literal stamp of approval to assure us that we are providing a world-class service for our customers!
