At EPAX, Purity, Quality, and Innovation are reflected in everything they do. EPAX is committed to delivering products that are safe and pure and have a consistently high quality. EPAX believe that safety and reliability are essential in securing long-term health benefits for consumers, and this is reflected in their unique purification technology

 

Purity

In the EPAX manufacturing process, EPAX have dedicated ourselves to producing the world’s purest Omega-3 fish oils. As a result, EPAX have gone beyond the industry’s method of defining fish oil purity – simply measuring environmental pollutants – they also include oxidation parameters and monitor trans fats.

Environmental Pollutants. EPAX sets new purity standards in the industry and guarantees products that meet or exceed all global authorities’ limits for organic pollutants and trace metals. In May 2007, EPAX once again lowered their definition of acceptable levels for dioxins, furans and dioxin-like PCBs to a specification that is 60% lower than the levels set by the EU authorities.

Oxidation. Being the first in the industry, EPAX sets new and stricter maximum values for oxidation products in the oils that are well below global authorities’ limits. Oxidation forms free radicals that can damage human cells and, consequently, negatively affect human health. Click here to see the maximum limits for oxidation products

 

Quality

Consistent quality. EPAX reach for consistent quality in all our EPAX formulations. EPAX manufacturing plant is approved for GMP production (Good Manufacturing Practice), carries a grant for the manufacturing of APIs (Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients) and maintains an approved HACCP system.

With an integrated supply chain, EPAX can ensure the controlled sourcing of high-quality raw materials. EPAX state-of-the-art manufacturing techniques, including enzymatic production, ensure that the oils are subjected to mild treatment during processing.

EPAX manufacturing ensures product quality with respect to vital parameters such as purity, concentration levels, oxidation, colour, taste and smell. Every production run carries full quality control documentation.

 

Innovation

Innovative at all times. When it comes to innovation, EPAX AS has achieved a number of industry firsts. EPAX were:

• the first to incorporate an “extra” step in the purification process
• the first to produce EPA/DHA concentrates
• the first to create condition-specific formulas
• the first to commercialise enzyme esterification
• the first to support our products with clinical trials
• the first to surpass all global purity standards

Innovation has always been a key component of the EPAX success and it will be continue to be so in the future. As innovators, EPAX is committed to delivering new, research-based products to the marketplace, and EPAX will continue to improve their processes in order to ensure that every product is of the highest quality.
