For supplement businesses, COAs are indispensable tools for verifying product quality, assuring customers of safety, and meeting industry standards. By presenting laboratory analyses and tests performed on raw materials and finished products, COAs help brands maintain customer trust, achieve regulatory compliance, and uphold quality assurance throughout their supply chain.
cGMP or Current Good Manufacturing Practices is a set of stringent guidelines established by regulatory agencies like the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to ensure the manufacturing process consistently delivers products that meet safety and quality standards.
Staying compliant with evolving FDA regulations and FTC guidelines is essential for protecting your product’s marketability, safety, and consumer trust. The FDA regulates human and veterinary drugs, medical devices, cosmetics, biological products, and the nation’s food supply to promote safety, accurate labeling, and public health standards. However, the FDA does not pre-approve cosmetics but focuses on post-market safety and labeling compliance.
