From Sourcing to Sip: Inside Our Quality Process

A 50g pouch looks simple. What it takes to get there isn't — four checkpoints, each one able to reject a batch before it moves forward.

01. Sourced

Pea, whey and rice proteins come from audited suppliers and are batch-tested for purity before they ever reach our facility. If a supplier's certificate of analysis doesn't match spec, the batch doesn't ship — no exceptions for schedule pressure.

02. Blended

Ratios are macro-mapped by a nutritionist first, then milled into a fine, fast-dissolving powder. This is the step that determines whether a shake clumps in a shaker bottle after 200ml of water and a minute of shaking, or actually dissolves — most of our early formulation iterations failed on texture, not taste.

03. Fortified

25 vitamins and minerals are folded in at this stage to cover a full meal's micronutrient profile, not just protein and calories. This is also where the digestive enzyme blend goes in, calibrated so the concentration of protein doesn't sit heavy.

04. Delivered

Sealed in a single 50g pouch sized to fit a bag pocket, with a batch number and expiry printed on every unit so any pouch can be traced back to its source ingredients if it's ever needed.

Why we print a batch number on every pouch

That MFG date and batch code on the back of every pouch isn't decoration — it's a trace line back to the exact supplier certificates and blend run that produced it. If anything about a batch ever needs to be questioned, we can answer it in hours, not weeks. Most shakes don't publish this because most customers don't ask. We'd rather you could, even if you never do.

What this means day to day

None of this shows up in a 90-second shake — that's the point. The four checkpoints exist so the only thing you have to think about is water, powder, and a shake, while everything that could go wrong upstream already got caught before it reached your kitchen.
