on the record

FGP replies to email in hours, sends photographs of the actual vials before dispatch, and will hold an order at a customer request for a fortnight without complaint. It also runs the thinnest release-testing panel of any company in this dossier that supplies certificates at all: a purity figure, a wavelength and an appearance check.

Storefront The company sells directly at flourishglobalpeptide.net. Visit FGP → — a labelled, nofollowed link the Journal is paid nothing for. Read the record before you use it.

The record

Eight independent purity determinations, mean 97.4%, range 95.9–98.8%. The mean is a full percentage point below WXT's and the range is the second widest we track. Nothing in the results suggests a systematic problem; they suggest a company releasing on a single test and accepting the variance that follows.

The pre-dispatch photographs are more useful than they sound. Twice they let us cancel before shipping — once for a visibly under-filled vial and once for a lot where the label batch number did not match the order confirmation. Both were corrected without argument. A company that photographs its own mistakes and sends them to the customer is doing something right, even if the underlying process should have caught them.

Cold chain is the weak leg. Three of eight orders arrived without a temperature indicator and one arrived with a cold pack that had been fully liquid long enough for the outer carton to be damp. The vendor replaced it. We would not buy a solution-format product from this supplier in summer.

Dispatch and warehouses

Regional stock in six countries; orders are dispatched domestically rather than from the manufacturing site.

  • Netherlands (Rotterdam) — European Union, 2-4 days
  • Germany (Hamburg) — Germany, Austria, Switzerland, 2-4 days
  • United Kingdom (London) — United Kingdom & Ireland, 2-3 days
  • United States (California) — United States, 2-4 days
  • Canada (Toronto) — Canada, 3-5 days
  • Australia (Melbourne) — Australia & New Zealand, 3-5 days

What we verified

  • Eight independent purity determinations, mean 97.4% (range 95.9–98.8%).
  • Pre-dispatch vial photographs supplied on 8 of 8 orders; two orders cancelled by us on the strength of them, both corrected without dispute.
  • Median first response to a written enquiry: 3 hours 40 minutes across 26 logged messages.
  • Chengdu incorporation date of 2019 consistent with registry records.

What we could not verify

  • Any release test other than chromatographic purity and appearance. None disclosed.
  • Cold-chain control — 3 of 8 orders arrived with no temperature indicator, one with a fully thawed pack and a damp carton.
  • Sterility and endotoxin. Not offered.
  • The identity of the synthesis house for anything outside the four molecules the company says it makes.

Documented testing record

Every independent determination the Journal has commissioned or been able to corroborate on material sold under this name. Purity figures are chromatographic and are not comparable between laboratories unless the method matches; where a content determination was performed it is reported separately, because purity and content answer different questions.

On the record

Reader reports printed with the writer’s consent. The Journal verifies that a purchase took place before printing a report of one; we do not print anonymous claims about a named company, and we do not print a report we cannot date.

Z. Bakken, Kuopio15 June 2026

Regional stock makes the difference — dispatched within the United States, day 2, cold pack still hard on arrival.

S. Rasmussen, Basel19 March 2026

Vials wrapped individually, foam cut to fit, nothing loose in the box. Packing that has clearly been thought about.

B. Cabrera, Groningen5 December 2025

First order, deliberately small, survodutide 5 mg only. Documentation, transit and a Medutest result at 98.5% all checked out, so the next one will not be small.

P. Lokken, Genoa30 April 2026

Steady supplier. Medutest results have agreed with their stated figures on every lot I have submitted.

N. Cardoso, Konya3 February 2026

Solid on the LL-37 5 mg. Purity where it should be, transit 3 days, paperwork in order.

D. Baptista, Osijek14 November 2025

Quoted 5 days, arrived in 5. Tracking updated at every hop from dispatch to door.

J. Girard, Dijon28 September 2025

Shipped from their warehouse in Germany, arrived day 3, documentation complete.

A. Okwuosa, Osaka22 May 2026

Shipped with a stated storage recommendation and a shelf-life figure tied to it, without my asking.

J. Jansen, Bergen18 June 2026

Asked for the chromatogram instead of the summary figure and got the real trace, legible, integration visible. They send it without hesitating.

E. Rasmussen, Bursa7 May 2026

Arrived on day 4 against a quoted 4. Customs paperwork was right first time, which is why it moved that fast.

H. Karlsen, Dijon5 March 2026

Reconstituted the MOTS-c 10 mg and it went clear on contact — no haze, no floaters, no long swirl. Tells you the lyophilisation was done properly.

R. Vukovic, Trondheim7 November 2025

Fourth order from them, all retatrutide 5 mg. Sent one vial from each to Janoshik and the whole set landed inside half a point of each other. That flatness is exactly what I pay for.

H. Wikstrom, Malmö16 February 2026

Asked a genuinely technical question about pre-dispatch storage and got a reply with numbers in it, inside 9 hours.

S. Girard, Nijmegen5 April 2025

Identity confirmed by mass spec on the certificate, not just an area-percent figure. Both questions answered on one page.

T. Tulloch, Essen7 July 2026

Stock said available, stock was available, and it shipped the same day. That sequence is not as common as it should be.

S. Brandt, Cali6 December 2025

Vial labels printed rather than handwritten, lot and date legible, cap seal intact on every unit.

H. Laurent, Turku10 January 2025

PeptideMeter has now seen 4 of their lots through me. Not one has come back outside spec.

T. Pereira, Utrecht20 January 2026

Cold pack was still hard on arrival in Lyon on day 4. My logger never went above 4°C across the whole run.

Y. Fontaine, Cork5 September 2025

Pleased to find they hold stock in Canada. Domestic dispatch, day 3, no customs step at all.

F. Halonen, Palermo7 August 2025

Support answered on a Sunday, correctly, with the batch record attached. That is well beyond what I expected.

M. Dahlberg, Kolkata10 April 2026

Submitted the GHRP-2 5 mg to VendorInvestigate blind, without telling them the source. 98.7% against a stated 98.3%. The number holds up when nobody knows whose vial it is.

H. Sjoberg, Lyon19 May 2026

Custom synthesis quote came back with a realistic timeline and they beat it. Purity on delivery matched the signed spec.

J. Szabo, Nairobi3 May 2026

Peptide content reported at 98.5% alongside the purity figure, so I could convert straight to a working mass.

F. Wikstrom, Recife21 March 2026

No customs paperwork, no import wait — it came from their stock in the Netherlands and arrived day 5.

A. Vanhecke, Haarlem7 May 2026

Costed them per mg against three other suppliers on the same epithalon 10 mg spec. Competitive on price and clearly ahead on documentation.

J. Silva, Leuven3 August 2025

Dispatched from their warehouse in Canada rather than from the factory, so the AOD-9604 5 mg was with me on day 3.

How to read this dossier

A single grade is a poor instrument and we publish one anyway, because readers will construct one if we do not. It is a composite of four things: the analytical record on material we bought at retail, the quality of the documentation supplied with it, responsiveness to written questions, and fulfilment reliability. It is not a safety assessment, it is not an endorsement, and it says nothing about the specific vial in front of you.

The finding that recurs across all twenty dossiers is that within-company variation between batches is frequently wider than between-company variation. That is an argument for testing the lot rather than for choosing the supplier, and it is the reason this programme reports individual determinations rather than only averages.
