The Innovation Guide
R&D, quality, packaging, and partnership —
the full picture of what we build together.
R&D and Custom Formulation
Our in-house R&D team supports every project from initial concept through finished dosage form. We specialize in clean-label and allergen-free formulations, including non-GMO, vegan, and gluten-free options. We see ourselves as a collaborative formulation partner, not simply an order-taker.
Quality Assurance & Transparency
Our facility is NSF/ANSI 455-2 GMP certified and GRMA certified for dietary supplements. We are FDA registered, and our processes meet and exceed FDA requirements.
Red Rock Laboratories, our independent onsite analytical and microbiological testing lab, uses HPLC, GC-MS, and ICP-MS to verify quality at every stage. Every raw material vendor is vetted through a certification program before entering production, and in 2025 we maintained a 99.1% on-time delivery rate.
Flexible Packaging & Labeling
We offer stick packs, pouches, bottles, and tub formats. Because label printing and design happen in-house, proofing is faster, quantities are exact, and there's no outside vendor lag. Custom coatings and capsule aesthetics help your product stand out on shelf, and our packaging capacity scales from small batches to more than 50 million bottles per year.
Business Partnership
21st Century HealthCare has been a trusted manufacturing partner since 1991, with more than 35 years of experience producing vitamins, supplements, and other health products. We've produced over 5 billion tablets and capsules and package more than 50 million bottles annually.† We're built to be a manufacturing partner, not just a vendor, for brands, retailers, and consumers who already trust our name.
