Contract manufacturer Biovation Labs gets NSF registered for meeting GMP requirements

Biovation Labs’ corporate headquarters in Salt Lake City, UT, is now a Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) facility registered by global testing company NSF International.

The contract manufacturer’s 104,000-sf headquarters and manufacturing plant opened in January of this year.

“Earning GMP registration from NSF International verifies that Biovation Lab’s state-of-the-art facility has the proper methods, equipment, facilities and controls in place for the manufacturing of dietary supplement ingredients,” said Justin Bath, President of Biovation Labs.

“As part of the independent registration process, NSF conducted an extremely comprehensive audit that included inspection of our manufacturing facility, product testing, process control, employee training, raw material specification and control, facility and equipment maintenance, and much more. This process is all-inclusive and voluntary. We did this to demonstrate to our clients and to the market that we hold ourselves to the most stringent standards of safety and quality.”

NSF GMP requirements are listed in Section 8 of NSF/ANSI 173, lauded as the only accredited American National Standard in the dietary supplement industry developed in accordance with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s (FDA) 21 CFR part 111. These regulations are listed for the manufacturing, packaging and distribution of dietary supplements.

Utilizing GMP guidelines helps ensure companies that manufacture these types of products are developing and maintaining proper controls in their manufacturing process so that products are consistently processed, manufactured and labeled, and meet stringent quality standards.

In its mission to provide the highest quality products and manufacturing processes, Biovation Labs adds the NSF GMP registration program to its list of other registrations and certifications, including certified cGMP, OK Kosher and registered FDA facility.
