SGTI MANUFACTURING

     
   
 


All of the premium supplements manufactured by SGTI® are produced on-site in a world-class facility. We have set the "gold standard" when it comes to making soft gelatin capsules. Our production capacity has been carefully engineered to average over one billion soft gels per year. We are able to deliver quality products utilizing efficient equipment and manufacturing technologies on our seven production lines. Four of our seven lines are isolated and have their own inspection rooms, which minimizes the possibility of cross-contamination. The encapsulation and inspection processes occur in temperature-controlled areas.

Precision Equipment
We have invested millions of dollars to purchase precision equipment, which enables us to consistently manufacture the finest soft gels for our customers. Our state-of-the-art blending and encapsulation equipment is of the highest standard in technology and design. Each batch is manufactured according to current Good Manufacturing Practices-our guarantee of quality, potency, and purity.

Ecology Awareness
In an effort to "Think Globally, Act Locally," SGTI® has recently incorporated a 260-kilowatt co-generation machine that generates electricity using natural gas. When the power is generated, heat is produced and can be harnessed for other elements, such as heating water for our boiler. We also have invested in two additional chiller units (45 and 75 tons, respectively) as part of our manufacturing capabilities. This ecology-friendly upgrade to our facilities, implemented in May 2005, supplies us with an uninterrupted source of power, independent of the California Power Grid. By providing 80% of our own power, we can be considered a reliable and environmentally-conscious supplier.
