As a manufacturer of quality nutritional supplements, UNNZ maintains very strict cleanliness standards in our processing plant. These include requirements for daily-cleaned white work clothing, frequent disinfecting of hands, boots and tools, as well as air filtration and sluice systems to protect the environment from dust and other contaminants.

UNNZ's commitment to exceptional quality is reflected in our implementation of an HACCP Quality Assurance Program. HACCP (Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point) is a systematic, preventative, science-based food safety control system originally developed by NASA for the US space programme. The system is internationally recognized as the most effective method for assuring food safety and is being mandated in the EU, USA and Australia, as well as being voluntarily adopted in countries like Canada and New Zealand. Under this system, UNNZ monitors and documents the physical, microbiological and/or chemical condition of the plant, supplies, materials and products at identified "Critical Control Points" at each step in the manufacturing process. Procedures are in place to take corrective action when monitoring indicates intervention is necessary. Our HACCP programme is audited by the New Zealand Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry and includes ongoing staff education to ensure that the highest standards are maintained. Testing From drying to packing, tests are carried out in-house to confirm quality and reliability of our operators and machines. These include mesh tests after milling and fill weights after encapsulating and tabletting using New Zealand Trade Weights & Measures standards for domestic products and British Pharmacopoeia Standards for export products. Capsule and tablet count tests are also conducted and documented on an ongoing basis.

All microbiological testing and chemical analysis of raw materials and products in process are carried out by the Cawthron Laboratories, an independent, New Zealand accredited laboratory registered with the IANZ auditing body.
