‘Gold standard’ machinery fits for Phoenix Formulations

Phoenix Formulations launched in 2015, focused on setting new standards for quality and purity. To achieve those goals, it coupled a new state-of-the-art production facility with a seasoned team with nearly 200 years of combined experience in nutritional manufacturing.

The Tempe, Ariz. company applies industry best practices and cutting-edge innovation. As part of these efforts, Phoenix turned to Mettler-Toledo Product Inspection Group, selecting four Safeline metal detectors, three Safeline x-ray systems and five Hi-Speed checkweighers for their eight packaging lines.

“We looked at multiple suppliers for inspection equipment and considered detection sensitivity, as well as price and service. I’ve been doing this for 20 years – Mettler-Toledo is truly the gold standard. Their systems are reliable and consistent,” says Kirk Neal, President of Phoenix. “Our customers recognize the Mettler-Toledo name and relate it with superior technology. As a contract manufacturer of private-label nutraceuticals, that association is very valuable.”

Phoenix develops custom-formula powders, capsules and tablets. Protein powders, energy drink mixes, meal replacements, supplements and other products are packaged in jars, gusseted bags, composite cans, single-serve pouches, stick packs and bulk containers at their 75,000 sq-ft facility in Arizona.

On four packaging lines, PowerPhasePRO metal detectors are installed to help ensure final product quality and safety. High frequency coil technology and advanced head geometry zero in on all types of metal contamination, from ferrous and non-ferrous tramp metal to the most difficult-to-detect stainless steel fragments.
