Methodology overview — revision 04-B, archived 2026
A structured six-stage process governs every formulation in the Taldona range. From the initial supplier evaluation through to finished lot documentation, each stage is recorded and available for review.
Each supplier considered for the Taldona range is subject to a structured evaluation before any material is accepted. The evaluation covers the supplier's documentation practices, facility standards, and traceability procedures.
On arrival, each raw material is logged against its accompanying certificate of composition. The certificate is cross-referenced against the ingredient specification before the material enters the production hold area. Materials without a verified certificate are held and not released to blending.
Blending is carried out according to the composition specification for each formulation. Ingredient ratios are fixed at the specification level and are not adjusted between production runs unless a revision is formally issued and archived. The revision number appears on all documentation generated from that point forward.
Ingredient profiles in Taldona supplements are selected based on published nutritional research and undergo independent batch verification for quality and labelling accuracy. Verification is conducted by a third-party laboratory operating independently of the production chain. The results are retained in the lot archive.
Encapsulation uses capsule shells specified in the ingredient declaration for each formulation. Granulation and fill weight are recorded per production run. Label copy is reviewed against the current composition specification before printing is authorised. The label archive holds all historical label revisions linked to their corresponding lot references.
On completion of all five prior stages, a formal lot record is issued. The lot record consolidates the supplier certificates, blending records, verification results, and label documentation under a single lot reference number. Lot records are archived and can be made available to stockists or wholesale partners upon written request.
Suppliers must provide certificates of composition for each material supplied. Certificates must reference the specific lot number of the material delivered.
Sourcing prioritises suppliers whose facilities maintain food-grade processing standards throughout material handling. Facility audits may be conducted at the discretion of Taldona.
Each ingredient is accompanied by documented origin information specifying the sourcing region and, where available, the named production facility. This supports the chain-of-custody record.
The supplier register is reviewed on a rolling twelve-month cycle. Suppliers who do not meet current standards at review are suspended from the register pending re-evaluation.
Temperature-sensitive materials, including omega fatty acid sources, must demonstrate cold-chain compliance throughout transit. Compliance records are retained with the incoming lot documentation.
Suppliers are expected to deliver materials consistent with the agreed compositional specification. Deviations beyond the accepted variance are subject to a formal review before the material is released to production.
Independent batch verification is the central control in the Taldona methodology. The process operates on three distinct verification points: raw material receipt, intermediate blend, and finished product.
At each point, a sample is submitted to the independent laboratory with a blind reference — that is, without indicating which supplier provided the material. This reduces the possibility of confirmation bias in the verification outcome.
Verification results are compared against the formulation specification and the ingredient's published nutritional reference values. Any result outside the accepted tolerance range triggers a hold on the affected batch pending investigation.
All verification records are retained in the lot archive for a minimum of five years from the date of issue. Records are indexed by lot reference number and are accessible for review by authorised parties upon written request to [email protected].
