Carefully Sourced Ingredients:
When it comes to the sourcing of ingredients we firmly believe that the breadth and rigor of all pet food safety practices starts with the partnership with reliable suppliers who provide the finest quality ingredients. When choosing our partners, we rigorously audit all ingredient suppliers to ensure their facilities meet our stringent raw material quality standards in addition to fulfilling the industry standard audit certifications such as the Good Manufacturing Principles and HACCP and this extends to every location for every ingredient supplier to ensure consistency in ingredient quality. Only once these expectations have been met will we approve the partnership with that supplier.
For the ingredients themselves, we inspects each ingredient via sensory, chemical, and screening for foreign material. This inspection is mandatory prior to agreeing to partner with a supplier as well as being part of our ongoing quality assurance programs that are performed for ingredients when they arrive at our US Manufacturing Facilities to ensure the continued quality of the ingredients and their safety during transportation. This includes validating the integrity of container seals, the cleanliness of all trucks and, where relevant, the maintenance of temperature controls for the duration of the transportation. Should any inbound ingredient not meet our specific standards then there is no room for negotiation, our team will reject the delivery.
Expertly Crafted Recipes:
Great pet food begins with high-quality natural* ingredients, which is why our ingredient selection for every recipe is a critical component of Wellness Pet Company’s heritage and continues to be a pillar of our company today. To deliver the finest quality nutrition, we have spent over 25 years building a superior nutrient understanding and analysis that details the specific performance and nutrient quality of each ingredient. With this robust understanding, we can ensure that each recipe delivers the finest quality nutrition to support a pet’s whole health and a life of wellbeing.
For each recipe, our team of experts including veterinarians, food scientists, technicians and PhD nutritionists work to ensure these ingredients are tailored into a customized recipe that exceed the nutritional needs of all dogs and cats to fuel a life of wellbeing.
