Aiming to lead the modernisation of the Traditional Chinese Medicine industry, Eu Yan Sang began to revolutionise our manufacturing plant in the early 1990s.
In 2002, we were awarded the Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) certification by the Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) of Australia, and ISO9001:2008 by Hong Kong Quality Assurance Agency. This led to Eu Yan Sang being the first fully GMP accredited TCM company in Hong Kong.
In 2006, we received a further GMP Certificate for Manufacturer (Proprietary Chinese Medicines) from the Chinese Medicines Traders Committee of the HKSAR. These significant milestones are never taken for granted as there has been much study and work put into our GMP manufacturing process.
Our GMP manufacturing process consists of: (1) herbs processing; (2) dust-free TCM production; (3) packaging.

The entire process is fully automated, enabling enhancements to be effected in both product quality and production efficiency. We have also made key investments in procuring production and testing equipment, in accordance with GMP requirements.
Apart from investing in the upgrade of hardware, it is crucial to establish a comprehensive documentation system to record, align, and control the manufacturing process and environment in which TCM is produced.
Quantitative data can be collected to ensure strict compliance with the standards set by the Department of Health. And to keep to the highest standards, Eu Yan Sang employs independent laboratories to undertake safety tests and runs in-house experiments on the consistency of TCM quality and efficacy.
Clinical trials are also conducted in this plant to provide further scientific proof of our products. Through the deployment of such scientific procedures and equipment, Eu Yan Sang’s products are assured of quality, safety and efficacy.
