    Waitaki Biosciences Positioned to Meet Growing Demand for High Quality Ingredients

    GMP certification and increased manufacturing capacity position New Zealand company for future success.

    09.22.17
    Booth M168
     
    Waitaki Biosciences, the New Zealand based manufacturer of quality natural nutritional ingredients, is positioned to be the first major nutraceutical ingredient supplier from New Zealand with the latest increase in capacity and imminent certification from MedSafe (the New Zealand Medicines and Medical Devices Safety Authority) to manufacture medicines to an Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient (API) Standard.
     
    This high level GMP certification positions the company to sell specific products into countries requiring pharma-level standards, but also means the company has achieved a higher standard of GMP certification than other New Zealand based dietary supplement ingredient suppliers, the company claimed. With today’s concerns about the global supply chain, such certification is valuable and preferred.
     
    The certification process is in the final stages, with completion expected by the end of 2017. The company will then be issued an official license to manufacture medicines along with GMP certification stating that the products are made to an Active Pharmaceutical Standard.
     
    “We believe this will be of significant interest to U.S. dietary supplement manufacturers as there are no other dietary supplement ingredient manufacturers in New Zealand licensed to this level,” said Chief Executive of Waitaki Biosciences, Craig McIntosh. “Being licensed to manufacture products that are Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients will also open doors for us in the Asian and European markets where our ingredients are regulated differently than in the USA.“
     
    Demonstrating this level of commitment to quality also sets Waitaki Biosciences apart from other companies supplying Greenshell Mussel powder and oil extract. PernaTec Oil, a high quality omega-3 and phospholipid rich New Zealand Greenshell mussel oil extract developed by Waitaki, sets a benchmark for high quality EFA ingredients, which is crucial as this ingredient begins to grow in popularity. The company’s unique oil extraction process creates a product with a superior profile of fatty acids, phospholipids and sterols. 
     
    The company is also a supplier of high quality stabilized freeze dried Greenshell mussel powder, a well known anti-inflammatory ingredient “Of particular concern is that there is an ongoing issue in the U.S. market for Greenshell Mussel powder with huge quantities of low grade defatted material flooding the market, being sold without disclosing that most of the actives are removed. This misleading practice is highly damaging to the market, and unfair to consumers.”
     
    On the heels of a significant expansion completed in 2016, a new 2 MT freeze dryer is currently being installed, which will allow Waitaki to implement the company’s strategic plan to take advantage of the booming interest in fruit and vegetable based products. In particular the company continues to see plenty of opportunity for ActiPhen freeze dried kiwifruit powder, an outstanding digestive health ingredient, and CassiPure anthocyanin rich blackcurrant extract for eye health, cognition and immune support. Mr. McIntosh noted “we are starting to hear concerns about the potential for digestive and other health problems emerging in a few years time as a result of the rise in popularity of restrictive diets, like Paleo for example. We believe that there will be more and more demand in the coming years for supplements like ActiPhen that can support digestion and immunity as the adverse effects of protein rich diets start to become apparent.”
