Question: How Safe are Your Ingredients?

The supplement world sometimes comes under fire for being "unregulated."

What most consumers don't know is voluntary regulation is common in industries like beauty, personal care and home products, too. And yes, some companies in every industry may take advantage. 

Wile takes our integrity seriously. Our philosophy is quality by design,  through the understanding of all potential quality issues on a case-by-case basis for each ingredient, each batch.  

Here are some steps we take to verify the quality of our ingredients and products: 

Identity Testing

Wile verifies the correct plant, the correct part of that plant, and the correct extraction solvent (when using an extract) is being sourced, matching the product label and specifications. 

Every batch of every ingredient undergoes high performance thin layer chromography (HPTLC), which is the most robust and fit-for-purpose means of making this assessment available to dietary supplement companies for routine use.

Sourcing 

When building the ingredient portfolio, Wile aim to understand the details of the supply network down to the agricultural practices, placing value in affiliations with the American Herbal Products Association, and their Good Agricultural and Collection Practices.  

Third-Party Contaminant Screening 

Contaminants are also addressed, controlling for pesticides, heavy metals, residual solvents, and bioburden throughout the portfolio.

Highest Quality Partners

We work with the most highly regarded manufacturing and sourcing agents in the industry, used by other top brands. All of our products are manufactured in the USA, with domestically grown ingredients as our preferred sources. 

What it all means

We take extra steps to ensure every ingredient that goes into a Wile product is what it's supposed to be, at the highest levels of quality and safety.
