How do we guarantee our products reach the highest possible standards?
To allay any fears you may have of the protein content of our products, please find below the results taken from a UKAS accredited external laboratory. We have tried to contact ‘C&C laboratories’ on numerous occasions to try and understand their results and the test conditions used but have so far received no response. The website address highlighted on the certificate is www.laboratoriocyc.com and the email address is info@laboratoriocyc.com if anyone else manages to make contact, please let us know as we are very keen to converse with them.
To give you a little bit of an insight as to how we have become Europe’s biggest protein brand. We purchase all our Whey Protein from Europe’s leading protein suppliers all of which have the necessary accreditation and history to pass our stringent quality standards. All of our products go through strenuous internal and independent testing procedures to assure adherence to our stated protein levels.
Our production test methods include both UKAS accredited external verification (by ALS labs) as well as stringent independent testing by Trading Standards of all of our label claims. Internal testing is conducted on a batch by batch basis and every result is certified and approved by our team before being released for sale. All these tests have achieved results well within our specified levels. We are committed to continue manufacturing our products to the highest possible standards whilst improving access to information and transparency for all our customers.

Why don’t we disclose information about our suppliers?
As Europe’s number one sports nutrition brand we pride ourselves in our product innovation and range, we feel that to disclose the details of our suppliers would not only make it too easy for our competitors and rivals to mimic our product range but also to convince suppliers to work exclusively with their brands, driving our costs and therefore prices up.
Instead we like to put our confidence and faith in our reputation as a brand, we have become Europe’s biggest supplier by offering market leading products, service and logistics. This has meant that more people have tried, tested and analysed our products than any other brand, and we are proud to say that we have always come out favourably whenever these analysis have been made.
What’s more we have invested significantly into new machinery and facilities within our production plant allowing us to improve our checks and testing at every step of production giving us Europe’s most technologically advanced sports nutrition production.
What does this mean for you?
We conduct a series of tests that we hope to soon show you and that we can start to display on our website, these include:
- We carry out a Near-Infra-Red test on every single batch to assure protein content is as expected.
- We are working on vegan, vegetarian and gluten free certification across all our product ranges.
- Labdoor and HFL accreditation to improve the visibility of our external testing methods and improve customer confidence within our brand.
- Videos showing our warehouse and production methods for our bestselling formulas.
We will continue to always work with our customers at the core of our interest, and our objective remains to offer the highest possible quality products at the lowest possible prices.
