OUR QUALITY
Our Quality
Nutra-Life has a long and proud tradition of quality assurance for over 50 years. Today, the company operates out of a state-of-the-art manufacturing facility purpose built to Therapeutic Good Manufacturing (GMP) standards, to meet the most stringent quality control requirements.
Our products are scientifically researched and triple tested, ensuring absolute quality in every product; ingredients are tested prior to production, during production and post production.
It is also certified by government agencies including:
- TGA (Therapeutic Goods Administration), which does the same for companies who sell dietary supplements (listed medicines) in Australia.
- Medsafe New Zealand, which oversees companies who manufacture dietary supplements in New Zealand
- MPI (Ministry for Primary Industries), which oversees companies who manufacture foods and dietary supplements based on animal and dairy ingredients (e.g. protein powders and colostrum) in New Zealand.
We believe that the whole team throughout the organisation must embrace a commitment to quality to deliver our quality values. These values are not aimed at just complying to minimum manufacturing standards but at ensuring the health benefits of our products. Any claimed benefit must be supported by a documented evidence base.
Our company operates on the philosophy of continual improvement, and maintains the quality and integrity of its products and processes through regular in-house quality programmes and extensive testing procedures.
