  • Certification and verification by independent third-party bodies

No shortcuts. No compromises.

Ingredient integrity: Where TruQuality™ begins

Our in-house research and development teams remain at the forefront of science to ensure that each ingredient is selected for clinical relevance.

We go beyond industry standard practices by evaluating raw materials according to methods that exceed the requirements of Certificates of Analysis.

Each ingredient must be supported by:

  • Scientific research demonstrating their effectiveness.
  • Complete tests of identity and purity.
  • A thorough control against falsification or asset substitutions.
  • Strong evidence of supply and responsible manufacturing process.
  • Test methods developed to ensure consistency and safety.

Equally important, we rigorously check the absence of unwanted substances - heavy metals, pesticides, microorganisms and other contaminants - so that healthcare professionals and patients can have complete confidence in each product.

What we test and why it's essential

Each test is designed to preserve purity, confirm concentration, and ensure patient safety.

Talking about quality is one thing — demonstrating it is another. With TruQuality™, you get complete visibility into the checks performed on our products. Find all the details of TruQuality™ directly on our product pages. Transparency designed to inspire trust.

Trusted suppliers. Reliable partners.

TruQuality™ starts long before ingredients arrive in our laboratories — it starts with the choice of our partners.

Each supplier is thoroughly qualified, audited, and continuously monitored to ensure they meet Metagenics' strict quality
requirements — often beyond industry standards and regulations.

Before being approved, suppliers must demonstrate:

  • Strong quality management systems and rigorous manufacturing controls.
  • Transparent procurement, traceability and documentation practices.
  • Constant integrity of the ingredients and reliability from one batch to another.
  • Compliance with regulatory and safety standards globally.

By working only with suppliers that meet our TruQuality™ criteria, we reduce risks early - by protecting product integrity, clinical outcomes, and patient safety.

Our Product Development Journey

R&D & research

Our R&D scientists are at the forefront of emerging science and conduct comprehensive investigations based on scientific evidence.

Raw material sourcing

Ingredients sourced from trusted global suppliers and rigorously tested. Delicate ingredients require additional testing and climate-controlled storage. 

Bringing the formula to life 

R&D specialists, formulators, flavour technologists, and chemists perform bench trials and analysis. Only minimal, necessary excipients are used to support delivery of active ingredients. 

Initial pilot batch

A small trial batch is thoroughly tested to ensure the product complies with all specifications before advancing to full-scale production. 

Large-scale production

100 batches produced per week across purpose-built facilities. Testing occurs throughout production — in some cases every 30 minutes — covering tabletting, powder blending, and encapsulation overseen by specialist personnel. 

Quality control of finished product

Each product is controlled to detect the presence of harmful microorganisms, check active ingredient levels, dissolution speed, height, weight and moisture stability — ensuring safe, efficient and consistent batches.

Quality assurance of finished product

The products are subject to strict quality control. They are not marketed that once comply with all the specifications, for the health professionals and patients.

Consistent quality you can trust

At Metagenics, TruQuality™ means consistent quality you can count on.

The same purity.
The same concentration.
The same security.

Every product. Each lot. Every time.
Because consistent quality is essential for reliable results.
