Bentonite minerals
Origin, mineral status, approved source, particle-processing route, moisture, contaminants, and the finished-SKU performance link.
MATERIAL GOVERNANCE
How Redhill and affiliated manufacturers define, verify, approve, trace, and change bentonite, plant fibers, starches, additives, fragrances, and packaging inputs.
VERIFICATION PRINCIPLE
Raw-material quality is not proven by terms such as mine-direct, food-grade, natural, IFRA-compliant, or certified supplier unless current evidence supports the exact source, material, holder, and scope. The buyer file should connect each approved input to a specification, supplier, receiving record, production batch, and change-notification rule.
Five input groups
01
Origin, mineral status, approved source, particle-processing route, moisture, contaminants, and the finished-SKU performance link.
02
Material identity, composition, moisture, microbiological or contaminant limits where agreed, storage, and claim evidence.
03
Botanical source, composition, additives, binding behavior, moisture sensitivity, supplier lot, and packaging barrier needs.
04
Supplier identity, formula reference, dosage, safety and regulatory documentation where applicable, claim review, and change notification.
05
Film or bag structure, print standard, migration or material evidence where applicable, seal performance, net-weight tolerance, and supplier lot.
Approval and release controls
Redhill coordinates the buyer-facing specification and evidence matrix. The assigned affiliated manufacturer remains responsible for site-level supplier approval, receiving controls, production records, and records issued in its legal name.
Evidence requested by stage
Material identity, proposed source, supplier declaration, target specification, claim questions, and initial risk review.
Approved material codes, formula version, incoming plan, sample approval, test methods, acceptance limits, and change commitments.
Finished-batch identity, agreed COA or test record, inspection evidence, packaging lot, release approval, and shipment link.
