MINTREX and MAAC trace minerals are manufactured under the Novus Quality Management System, ensuring safe, high quality trace mineral solutions that consistently exceed stringent global standards.
The trace mineral production process begins with a strict examination of raw materials for undesirable contaminants such as heavy metals, dioxin and PCBs. The same quality commitment used to procure raw materials continues into production. Exacting processes controlled by time and temperature are qualified by Novus chemists and audited by Novus Quality Assurance to maintain a pure manufacturing environment. Highly trained Novus manufacturing managers review each batch record to assure compliance with prescribed procedures and control limits. Lastly, each and every lot of finished, outgoing MINTREX chelated trace minerals is tested using industry standards and Novus proprietary methods to guarantee compliance with rigorous specifications for purity and performance.
