Our Raw Materials & Active Ingredients

Quality Supplements Begin with High-Quality Ingredients

At the 1Q Shop, we select, test, and process only raw materials that meet our strict quality and safety standards.

Our focus is on proven ingredients, clearly structured formulations, and full transparency. This ensures that you know exactly what is included in your product — and can confidently communicate this to your customers.

High Quality Standards with Reliable Ingredients

Raw material quality should never be assumed — it must be verified. Every raw material we use is subject to clearly defined quality principles:

• Incoming Goods Inspection for Every Batch

• Identity and quality testing are performed internally — not solely based on supplier documentation.

• Certified Quality Systems

• Our processes comply with HACCP, FSSC 22000, and EU organic standards.

• Clean Label Approach

• Whenever possible, we avoid unnecessary additives and fillers. The focus is on the active ingredient itself.

• Bioavailable Ingredient Forms

• We prioritize raw material forms with high bioavailability (e.g. organic mineral compounds or fruiting bodies in medicinal mushrooms).

• Controlled Storage Conditions

• Raw materials are stored under defined temperature and light conditions to ensure stability and efficacy.

These measures ensure consistently high quality from batch to batch.

Transparent and Responsible Sourcing

The origin of our raw materials matters. We work exclusively with audited and accredited suppliers whose supply chains are traceable and documented.

Wherever possible, we use EU-certified organic raw materials and responsibly sourced Omega-3 oils, among others.

Transparency and responsibility in sourcing also allow you to present your brand credibly to increasingly informed customers and build long-term trust.

We Select Ingredients with Real Substance

We do not choose ingredients based solely on short-term trends. In the development of our white-label products and private-label solutions, our teams consider:

• Scientific evidence

• Practical formulation expertise

• Regulatory feasibility

This includes:

• Meaningful and approved dosages

• Functional ingredient combinations

• Appropriate dosage forms (capsules, tablets, powders, or liquids)

The result: stable, effective, and safe formulations — suitable for real industrial-scale production.

Let us build your supplement on a solid foundation of high-quality active ingredients.
