Each product is unique and specially formulated to the customer's
specifications by a master chemist using the Golden State Natural
Products Delivery System. The customer makes all of the choices from
flavor and packaging to dosage and intensity. When the supplement is
complete, the customer puts their name on it and distributes the product
through their existing marketing channels anywhere in the world.
The Semi-Custom Formulary Process
The timeline for design, manufacturing and delivery of finished
nutritional supplements is contingent on the availability of raw
materials, as well as customer-mandated procedures, testing and
packaging. The entire process from inception to shipment of finished
product normally takes about 20 working days. Customer review and
approval controls are built into each stage in the process.
Analysis and Specification
The process of defining a new formulary begins with a detailed
Product Specifications Worksheet to determine the primary objectives of
the supplement. The customer establishes performance criteria, active
ingredient requirements, physiological resplonse objectives, packaging
and delivery specifications, sampling procedures as well as flavorings
and dosage specifics.
Research and Formulary Development
From the customer's initial specifications, a master chemist
develops an architecture for creating the formula. From this
architecture, the chemist balances synergistic herbal ingredients in
conjunction with delivery elements to craft a product that meets the
Golden State Natural Products Delivery System parameters.
Prototype and Testing
Once the formulary has ben engineered, small batches of the
mixture are created in the lab and submitted to the customer for review.
Additionally, samples can be sent to an independent laboratory to be
tested for active ingredients and efficacy.
Production and Delivery
Once laboratory samples of the product have been approved by the
customer, the product is scheduled for manufacturing. Final tests are
performed on all raw materials, dosage and delivery instructions are
verified and the product is put into full production. The final product
undergoes rigorous testing and quality control procedures before being
shipped to the customer's delivery point.
Quality Focus
The company follows a highly structured Quality Assurance Policy
manual that details every aspect of the design, manufacturing and
delivery process. The quality principles, on which the company was
founded, are designed to create a safe work environment and produce high
quality products with the highest level of purity. These principles
apply whenever a material is being exposed to air, human contact or is
in any part of the development or manufacturing proces.
Golden State Natural Products' development and manufacturing
processes comply with applicable Federal and State regulations as well
as GMP and cGMP practices. All materials used in the design and
manufacturing of Golden State Natural Products products are of the
absolute highest quality and refined purity available.
Non-disclosure and Confidential Information
Golden State Natural Products acknowledges that during the course
of any working relationship, the company may have access to trade
secrets, proprietary information and confidential information of a
semi-custom formulary development customer, including, but not limited
to, sales volumes, market share, identity of outside suppliers,
customers and customers' financial data, business plans, contracts, and
methods of doing business. Golden State Natural Products agrees that all
confidential information is the property of the customer, and that
Golden State Natural Products will not disclose any such information
without written permission. In protecting confidential information from
unauthorized disclosure or use, Golden State Natural Products will
utilize at least the same degree of care with respect to customers'
confidential information as Golden State Natural Products utilizes with
respect to their own data of a similar nature, but not less than
reasonable care. |
