Solix Algredients gets ConsumerLab.com quality certification

American algae-based natural ingredient supplier Solix Algredients has revealed that its Solasta Astaxanthin product has received the ‘Approved Quality’ seal certification from ConsumerLab.com.

Solasta is produced from Haematococcus pluvialis (microalgae), which is a natural astaxanthin extract that complies with the stringent US Pharmacopeia (USP) specification.

Solix Algredients chief commercial officer Charlie Bowman said: “Our new Solasta 110 extends our range of astaxanthin products, providing greater operational flexibility and cost savings to the makers of dietary supplements, nutritional beverages and personal care products.

“USP quality, supply chain speed and flexibility, combined with our capability to formulate Solasta in a variety of carrier oils and other ingredients, enable our customers to differentiate and increase their sales.”

The certification from the ConsumerLab.com is the latest confirmation of Solix Algredients' ongoing efforts to provide the industry with high-quality, natural algal ingredients.

Earlier this year, Solix was certified by UL Registrar as meeting the Natural Product Association's (NPA) requirements for compliance with the US Food and Drug Administration's (FDA) Good Manufacturing Practices (GMPs) for dietary supplements.
