Pentavite highlights transparency from factory to laboratory

Through a visit to its factory in Zhuhai, China, Astro AWANI reviewed the handling processes for raw materials, production, sampling, microbiological testing, and final packaging.

Pentavite Global Education General Manager, Alon Szprinc, said the emphasis on production transparency was built upon the company's long-standing experience in the nutrition field.

 “Based on an 85-year Australian heritage, we combine science with local knowledge to offer enjoyable nutrition.”

“Every process in our factory is carried out transparently and fully complies with the strict standards of Australia's TGA Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP),” he said.

At the product testing center, each inspection serves as a final layer of protection before the product is released to the market.

Pentavite Senior Quality Manager, Eason Cai, said control over ingredients is supported by multiple layers of inspection and validation throughout the production process.

“Our ingredients from around the world are managed through an end-to-end traceability system.”

“With the support of our laboratory accredited by the China National Accreditation Service for Conformity Assessment (CNAS), halal certification, and validation from Société Générale de Surveillance (SGS), we ensure strict safety and quality control,” he said. 

The process also encompasses raw material storage, laboratory testing, compliance validation, and final packaging before the products are marketed.

This approach allows every stage of production to be tracked and inspected to ensure product quality remains consistent.
