Who provides the raw materials for dietary supplement manufacturing?

Who provides the raw materials for the production of tableted candies, solid drinks, substitute teas and other dietary supplements? Are you also considering this issue? Although the entrusted processing of dietary supplement production products has flexible product customization and various OEM and ODM cooperation models, it has relatively strict qualifications and supply method requirements for the raw materials used.

Who provides the raw materials for the production of dietary supplements?

1. Factory provided: also called factory contracted labor and materials. Food entrusted production companies will purchase through fully qualified raw material suppliers based on the amounts of various ingredients required for production. The procurement costs will be reflected in the OEM cooperation quotation details.

2. Strip processing: From the perspective of the processing factory, it is also called processing with supplied materials. Customers themselves provide the raw materials needed for the processing of tablets, powders, granules, tea bags and other food brand products, but the procurement and delivery process of raw materials needs to be carried out in accordance with the requirements of the OEM.

Dietary supplement manufacturing is to hand over the production tasks of your own products to factories with production qualifications and capabilities. During this period, the formula ingredients of the product will definitely be involved. Because of this, a large number of customers prefer "strip processing" among the above two raw material supply options. What's more, the raw materials of each component will be mixed in order to achieve the purpose of keeping the content ratio of the components confidential. However, have you noticed that in the large health food contract production industry, there are fewer and fewer factories that support processing of supplied materials!

What should you pay attention to when producing and manufacturing dietary supplements by providing your own raw materials?

1. Type of raw materials: The processing and production of tableted candies, solid beverages, substitute teas and other categories of products have very different requirements for the crushing degree of raw materials, and many products will use extract ingredients. What about liquid and solid extract ingredients? In this case, you need to communicate with the factory to determine the specific requirements for the raw materials, and then go to the corresponding supplier to negotiate prices and purchase.

2. Procurement method: Food processing factories accept the point-to-point supply model between raw material suppliers and OEM factories. Therefore, you can choose the supplier yourself and negotiate the price yourself, but the raw materials must be shipped to the factory by the supplier. Food and health care product processing manufacturers ensure the reliability of raw materials in this way.

3. Parameter requirements: When purchasing raw materials, be sure to pay attention to their moisture and bacterial colony content. If there is too much water, the factory needs to carry out dehydration treatment. If the purchase quantity is purchased according to the required quantity standard of the order, then weight loss will occur after dehydration, and the raw materials are not enough; if the bacterial colonies exceed the standard, the food processing factory needs to perform secondary sterilization, which will produce another problem Secondary sterilization costs.

The key factors that determine who provides the raw materials for dietary supplement manufacturing are the customer's own supply of raw materials and their trust in the OEM factory. Among them, the secret ingredients of the formula account for a large factor.

The raw materials for the processing and production of large health foods such as tablet candies, solid drinks, and alternative teas can be purchased from OEM factories or provided by yourself. However, the self-sourced processing model must operate according to the OEM manufacturer's raw material quality, qualifications and acceptance process, so as to achieve the purpose of controlling its reliability.
