Don’t rely on PDFs of GMP certifications from NSF!
We don’t send PDFs of GMP certifications anymore because we don’t want our customers to get into the habit of relying on them in general. If we send PDFs, our customers may rely on PDFs from our competitors which in many cases are misleading.
GMP certifications from NSF don’t tell the whole story. This is because NSF issues the same PDF document for 3 different types of companies:
- GMP certifications for a Distribution Facility
- GMP certifications for a Warehouse Facility
- GMP certifications for a Manufacturing Facility
The ONLY way to see the difference is to go online and look above the 2nd listing of the company name (see directions on image attached and below). There it’s stated if the certification is for one of the above three types of companies.
Of course, you want your CMO to hold a GMP certification for a Manufacturing Facility.
The fact that NSF does not put this on their PDFs has caused lots of confusion and has caused many manufacturers to only hold a GMP certification for a Warehouse Facility and then claim Manufacturing certification.
This is of course something we at PureNSM don’t like and it’s therefore we have stopped sending out PDFs and have chosen not to renew our NSF certification.
