The Centre of Excellence in Nutritional Supplements Testing for Sportsperson (CoE-NSTS) provides product certification based on every batch testing, requiring companies to register for the annual certification program. Each batch of finished products must be submitted for testing. Upon successful completion of this testing, which meets our rigorous standards, the “NFSU-NSTS Certified (Every Batch Screened for Banned Substances)” certification will be granted. This certification can be prominently featured on your registered product labels, assuring consumers that your products have undergone comprehensive screening for banned substances and boosting athletes' confidence in their use. This certification demonstrates your dedication to quality and integrity, thereby enhancing your reputation in the industry.
The center is accredited with ISO 17025:2017 and recognized by FSSAI. The product(s) will be screened for more than 230 substances banned in sports, including all major categories such as Anabolic Steroids, Stimulants, Hormones and Diuretics.
