Product Storage At Synergy, we invest so much in our products because we want you and your clients to experience real results when taking them. Proper storage plays a key role in making sure those positive results are achieved.

Certain products require specific storage conditions in order to maintain potency, so we have constructed special climate-controlled warehousing areas for particular products. Four different temperature "zones" have been designated. They are the freezer (18 degree Fahrenheit), refrigerator (38 degree Fahrenheit), controlled storage (68 degree Fahrenheit) and a fully air-conditioned warehouse for items that don't require any other storage conditions.

Proper product storage actually begins with our Quality Assurance department. They work closely with raw material vendors to make sure we understand the appropriate storage temperature for each raw material. Our computerized tracking system then makes sure each item is kept where it belongs.


Packaging
Synergy utilizes eight separate packing lines. Here are a few examples of their capabilities and capacities:

100-count line: Average 22,000 bottles of products per eight-hour shift.
Queen line: Responsible for the production of almost 60 products packaged in bottles of various sizes.
King and Ace lines: Handle tablets and capsules and are capable of filling both our smallest and largest bottles.
Ace line: Can package as many as 1 million tablets or capsules per day.

Running so many different lines also gives us the flexibility to change production schedules to meet customer demand.
