Compliance & Safety in C.L. Smith’s Nutraceutical Packaging

In the highly regulated world of nutraceuticals, packaging plays a critical role in maintaining product integrity, safety, and efficacy. At C.L. Smith, we understand the importance of stringent quality control and compliance measures to ensure that our packaging solutions meet the highest standards. This blog explores the processes, advanced materials, and cutting-edge technologies we use to protect your products from production to patient.

Stringent Quality Control Measures

Comprehensive Testing Protocols

Quality control at C.L. Smith begins with rigorous testing. Our packaging undergoes a series of strategic tests to ensure it can withstand various environmental conditions and stresses. These tests include:

• Leak Testing: Ensures that the packaging is airtight and prevents contamination.

• Drop Testing: Assesses the durability and impact resistance of the packaging.

• Stability Testing: Evaluates the packaging’s performance over time under different storage conditions.

Adherence to Regulatory Standards

We strictly adhere to industry regulations and standards set by authorities such as the FDA (Food and Drug Administration). Compliance with these regulations guarantees that our packaging solutions are safe and effective for nutraceutical products.

In-House Quality Assurance Team

Our dedicated quality assurance team continuously monitors and audits our processes. This team ensures that every step of the packaging production meets our high-quality standards, including compliance with IFS PACsecure certification. They conduct regular inspections and maintain detailed records to provide traceability and accountability.

Advanced Materials for Optimal Safety

High-Barrier Films

To protect sensitive nutraceutical products, we use high-barrier films that offer superior protection against moisture, oxygen, and light. Additionally, colored glass, such as amber, provides protection from UV light. These measures help maintain the product’s potency and shelf life.

BPA-Free Plastics

Safety is important, and we prioritize using BPA-free plastics to eliminate any risk of harmful chemicals leaching into the products. Our commitment to using safe materials aligns with our goal of providing the highest quality packaging.

Tamper-Evident Features

Tamper-evident packaging is essential in preventing unauthorized access and ensuring product integrity. Our packaging solutions include tamper-evident seals and closures that provide clear visual evidence if a product has been compromised.

Child-Resistant Closures

For added safety, especially in packaging products that could be harmful if ingested, we incorporate child-resistant closures. These closures are designed to be difficult for young children to open, while still allowing adults to access the product with ease.
