Sports Nutrition & Performance Formulas

Pre-workout, intra-workout, and recovery formula manufacturing for athletic and performance supplement brands.

MNL's sports nutrition manufacturing covers the complete product category: pre-workout stimulant and non-stimulant formulas, intra-workout EAA/BCAA blends, creatine systems, recovery and post-workout formulas, and high-performance hydration matrices. We are an NSF for Sport® ready manufacturing facility, supporting brands that serve competitive athletes subject to banned substance testing. Complex multi-ingredient stacking formulas with 15–25 active ingredients are routinely produced at commercial scale.

Quality Assurance & Verification Protocol

Every sports nutrition & performance formulas batch passes through a four-phase analytical verification workflow before Certificate of Analysis issuance and release.

01

Ingredient Prohibited Substance Pre-Screening

For NSF for Sport® eligible batches, all raw materials are pre-screened against the WADA/NSF prohibited substance list before use. Stimulant ingredients confirmed for label-accurate caffeine content.

WADA / NSF prohibited substance cross-referenceCaffeine content assay (HPLC)Beta-alanine and citrulline identity (HPLC)Creatine purity (HPLC, ≥ 99.9%)Heavy metals (ICP-MS)
02

In-Process Blend Uniformity

10-point multi-location sampling for blend uniformity of all key actives. Critical for high-potency stimulant blends where hotspots could represent a safety concern.

10-location BU samplingKey active assay at each location (HPLC)RSD calculation (target ≤ 5.0%)Moisture control check (LOD ≤ 1.0%)
03

Finished Batch Testing

Label claim verification for key actives, microbial testing, and physical testing on finished batch. NSF for Sport® submission package prepared if applicable.

COA Release

QA Director sign-off on full batch record and multi-active analytical panel. NSF for Sport® COA addendum issued for eligible batches.

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.
