Stratum Nutrition has announced its affiliation with the United Natural Products Alliance (UNPA), along with its presence on TraceGains’ ingredient marketplace platform, and Upcycled Certification for its flagship ingredient, NEM natural eggshell membrane.
UNPA Membership
UNPA is a trade group representing the dietary supplements and natural health industries, where members collaborate to ensure a productive business environment.
“We are deeply honored to have a company of Stratum Nutrition’s reputation and integrity join UNPA. We know they will add great value to the work we are doing to advance safety, science, and quality of the dietary supplement industry, and we hope to expand the range of relationships for Stratum in the U.S. and international markets,” said Loren Israelsen, founder and president of UNPA.
“We’re excited to join forces with Loren and his team at UNPA,” said Micah Osborne, president and CEO of Stratum Nutrition. “We support what UNPA stands for and it’s important to develop strong relationships to achieve the collective goal of the natural product industry which is to make health and wellness more accessible to consumers and provide them with the best possible quality of ingredients and products.”
Upcycled Certification
Upcycled products use ingredients that have full nutritional value and are safe, but for various reasons, would have gone to waste. The Upcycled Food Association (UFA) supports sustainability certification plans and partners with leading certifiers to uphold the definition and integrity of the upcycled foods sector. Upcycled Certified is the only global third-party certification for upcycled foods.
NEM’s Upcycled Certification validates that its eggshell membrane ingredient is produced using verifiable supply chains that meet UFA’s and the Upcycled Certified Program’s standards. Two other ingredients from Stratum, ESC eggshell calcium and Eggshell Membrane Collagen Support Complex have also received Upcycled Certified designation.
TraceGains
TraceGains provides a network for global brands to collaborate on ingredients and items from supply chain locations, creating greater agility and joined sustainability with the business ecosystem and modern supply chain.
By joining TraceGains, Stratum can broaden its reach and increase accessibility and availability of its resources.
"Integrating TraceGains into our operations has been a pivotal move for enhancing how we interact with both suppliers and customers. It's more than just a tool, it's a bridge that connects rigorous supplier management and transparent customer communication. This technology ensures that every ingredient we deliver is supported by a solid foundation of reliable supplier documentation, giving our customers peace of mind and reinforcing our position as a trusted leader in the industry,” said Danny Long, director of quality and regulatory at Stratum Nutrition.
