Quality controls
For many years, Solgar has implemented a particularly rigorous quality control system. Thanks to its laboratory equipped with the most advanced technologies (liquid chromatography, gas chromatography, mass spectrometer, etc.) Solgar performs hundreds of tests for each of its references, from raw materials to finished products.
In order to meet the natural expectations of food safety and tolerance, Solgar avoids as much as possible the use of allergenic raw materials or sensitizing compounds. Thus, almost all Solgar products are made without gluten, wheat, soy, corn, yeast, dairy products, preservatives, flavor enhancers or colorings (titanium dioxide).
Gluten is a simple combination of proteins (prolamins-glutenins) present in certain cereals such as wheat, rye, barley, oats. However, the consequences can sometimes be significant in certain sensitive or intolerant people. Currently, only 2 terms can be used to inform consumers about the absence or reduced presence of gluten: the statement "gluten-free", reserved for products containing less than 20 milligrams of gluten per kilogram (ppm) and the statement "Very low in gluten", reserved for those containing less than 100 milligrams per kilogram.
However, when Solgar displays the mention gluten-free, the finished product does not benefit from any tolerance threshold with a zero gluten concentration (i.e. 0 ppm). More than 96% of our references are certified “gluten-free”.
The term “dairy-free” means the absence of lactose and milk proteins, natural components of milk causing digestive disorders or allergies. More than 99% of the Solgar range is free from dairy derivatives, including our range of probiotics, products traditionally sought after by people with sensitive intestines.
The KOF-K logo represents the internationally renowned brand of KOF-K Kosher Supervision, one of the leading kosher certification agencies in the world. Solgar has selected this recognized international body for the certification of its food supplements.
Solgar has chosen IFANCA (Islamic Food and Nutrition Council of America), an organization that adheres to the strictest Halal laws to certify our products.
Over 80% of the range is suitable for vegans / vegetarians. Thus, the words "suitable for vegans" or "suitable for vegetarians" are indicated where appropriate.
Solgar was the first in the natural products industry to use natural water-based coatings for all tablet products. It is an advancement and an innovative choice over commonly used solvent-based coating agents. This aqueous coating improves the dissolution of the tablets, thus allowing better bioavailability of the nutrients.
