Powder Manufacturing & Industrial Blending

High-shear blending, instantization, and agglomeration for sports nutrition, wellness, and clinical powder formats.

Our Van Alstyne blending facility houses ribbon blenders, high-shear granulators, and V-blenders capable of processing batch sizes from 25 kg R&D pilots to 2,000 kg commercial runs. We specialize in complex multi-ingredient sports nutrition blends, plant protein blending and agglomeration, and functional hydration formulas with electrolyte matrix integration. All powder batches are blended under humidity-controlled cleanroom conditions to prevent hygroscopic ingredient clumping.

Quality Assurance & Verification Protocol

Every powder manufacturing & industrial blending batch passes through a four-phase analytical verification workflow before Certificate of Analysis issuance and release.

01

Ingredient Identity & Pre-Blend QC

Every raw material is identity-tested before release to the blending floor. Protein sources verified for nitrogen content (Kjeldahl/Dumas), BCAA ratio assayed by HPLC where applicable.

Ingredient COA verificationProtein content (Kjeldahl / Dumas method)BCAA profile (HPLC amino acid analysis)Heavy metals screen (ICP-MS)
02

In-Process Blend Uniformity

10-point sampling across the blender load at completion of blend time. Blend uniformity (BU) assay confirms homogenous distribution of active ingredients per USP and ASTM E2810 guidance.

03

Finished Powder Testing

Label claim potency for key actives, microbial enumeration, and physical attributes measured on retained finished batch samples.

COA Release & Documentation

Batch record reviewed and approved by QA Director. COA issued with full traceability to raw material lots. Flavor and color batch records cross-referenced.

Certificate of Analysis (COA) — Issued Per Batch

Every commercial batch receives a QA Director–signed Certificate of Analysis on MNL letterhead. The COA documents all test parameters, analytical methods, results versus specification, and full lot traceability to raw material COAs. No batch ships without COA authorization.
