Solaray was built upon the belief that nature is the source of wellness. More than fifty years later, our outlook hasn’t changed: We continue to use only clean ingredients from the earth to create supplements that help you embrace the moments that matter most.
To protect the planet that cares for us all, we are deeply committed to sustainability—in everything we do.
That pledge begins not just with the high-quality nutrients and ingredients inside our bottles, but also with our bottles themselves.
Why We Choose PCR Packaging
Solaray supplements are packaged in 100% post-consumer resin (PCR) bottles, which are crafted from discarded and recycled plastic.
It's no secret that the planet has a plastic problem. By using PCR bottles, we help reduce our carbon footprint and keep plastic out of landfills and oceans, where it threatens the lives of marine animals.
How exactly are they made? Recycled plastic bottles are cleaned, chopped, melted, and turned into plastic chips. Those chips become our packaging, which is also recyclable and doesn't have to get tossed in the trash when it's empty.
PCR bottles are significantly less wasteful and damaging than virgin plastic or other new materials: They're easier and lighter to transport than glass, for lower greenhouse gas emissions. Plus, they're fully recyclable vs. compostable, because compostable plastic only biodegrades in certain conditions.
Unique Shade, Unique Shine
It just so happens that PCR bottles look cool, too, not to mention serendipitously align with our mission to help you Live Brighter. Because they’re made from unique sources of plastic gathered from around the globe, each bottle has its own distinct shade and shines a little differently from all the others—as you do. And that’s just the way we like it.
Why Mountains on the Label?
We’re glad you asked. Some of the first Solaray bottle labels were hand-designed and manually printed right in our founder’s humble Utah home. The view from his office desk was nothing short of breathtaking: the state’s famed Wasatch Mountain Range.
This expansive wonder served as compelling inspiration for him each morning to continue helping others pursue better health through nature-derived solutions. Today, we still see these beautiful mountains from our office in Salt Lake City and our production facility in Ogden. So, we knew we had to include them when we redesigned our labels.
We honor our history and our home with custom artwork capturing the essence of this dramatic, captivating range in all its splendor. On each label, you’ll find the outlines of three rugged Wasatch summits: Sundial Peak, Mount Olympus, and Mount Timpanogos.
During your morning wellness routine, see if you can pick out each prized peak. And if you’re out exploring these or other ridges on your quest to Live Brighter, we hope you’ll share with us on social media with #LiveBrighterSolaray.
Benefits in a Bottle
Of course, our labels aren’t just designed to look pretty. They also share the information you need to make the right purchase that meets your individual wellness needs and goals.
On the front of your Solaray bottle, find everything from the formula’s potency or milligram amount, to its key health benefits, to important considerations such as vegan and gluten-free designations along with any applicable certifications, including USDA Organic and Non-GMO Project Verified.
Turn to the back, and you’ll find the Supplement Facts panel to discover all of the formula’s high-quality, efficacious ingredients. Often, you’ll also see a Discussion panel with more details about what you’re getting in your expertly crafted Solaray supplement.
