Manufacturing

Designs for Health is dedicated to providing top-quality, reliable and efficacious dietary supplement products to the professional health care community. As evidence of our exceptionally high quality standards, the Designs for Health team maintains a strict quality policy and supplier qualification program. Both are designed to formally express and document the quality expectations and performance requirements of our company-owned manufacturing facilities and a closely managed group of global suppliers, while ensuring compliance with FDA Good Manufacturing Practices (GMPs).

The Importance of Specialization

It requires a global network of manufacturing facilities to provide the level of proficiency mandated by Designs for Health for the production of capsules, tablets, softgels, powders, liquids, bars, and specialty items such as soft-chewables and topicals. Each product form requires unique machinery, expertise, quality control measures, and raw materials handling. Producing a nutrition bar that holds together, a powder that mixes well, a softgel that doesn`t leak, and a tablet that dissolves well, all require unique levels of specialization. Only by directly controlling the majority of our manufacturing requirements and contracting with the best available contract manufacturers in each product-manufacturing category, can Designs for Health meet its own high level of production standards.

Vendor Qualification Program

Over 90% of Designs for Health supplements are manufactured in company-owned plants in Arlee, Montana and Henderson, NV so that we have consistent control of our stringent quality standards. Additionally, every Designs for Health supplier must undergo a formal qualification process to evaluate procedures and activities related to the manufacture, packaging, and holding of Designs for Health dietary ingredients and finished dietary supplements. Key elements of the qualification process include:

Vendor evaluation
Documentation review
Evaluation of Standard Operating Procedures, i.e., manufacturing controls and processes
Existence of a Designs for Health-approved testing and monitoring program for raw materials and finished products
