Chosen for their superior quality and potency, our raw ingredients are sourced from leading experts in the raw material industry. Though we do not rely on their paperwork for quality. We have a stringent review process of each supplier backed by the most scientifically available equipment in our in-house laboratory that proves if their claims are accurate. If needed, we also use third-party laboratories to validate our findings.

Hazard Analysis Review

Because no matter how good your sources are, all ingredients and companies have inherent hazards. It is our duty to protect our customers from these, and to provide the best ingredients available from the best sources.

Following NSF guidelines, First Priority Manufacturing maintains a robust hazard analysis program that reviews the potential risks associated with each ingredients manufacturer.

First, four members of our quality team review the quality program of a potential vendor, utilizing physical audits, interviews, testing method validations, and background checks for past or current regulatory issues.

Next, all compiled information is brought to a classification session. During this session the documents and ingredients supplied by the potential vendor are reviewed.

Potential hazards are considered, such as country of origin, inherent ingredient hazards (mold, E. coli, Salmonella, etc.) or economical adulteration potentials.

After all potential hazards have been agreed on and classified, the probability of such hazards occurring is determined, by using a classification from frequent (1 in 5 purchases) all the way down to extremely unlikely ( 1 in 10,000 purchases). These assessments and classifications are determined by scientific methods, observations, real-life testing protocols, and industry knowledge of economically generated adulterations. Last, using the severity and probability, a risk level is determined.

By determining the risk levels of a potential vendor we can identify testing protocols and mitigations. We do this, even for the best vendors, to ensure they maintain their quality standards. Plus, by validating their quality before they are approved for use, we are able to eliminate substandard vendors and their ingredients from our process.

Remember your end result is only ever as good as the quality of your ingredients.
