What Packaging Options Should I Choose for My Supplement?
Packaging is not just how the product looks. It affects cost, label space, shipping, storage, customer experience and channel fit.
Start with the format
Capsules, gummies, powders, liquids, sachets, topicals and tablets all have different packaging needs.
The package has to protect the product and give the label enough room to do its job.
Think about the channel
An Amazon product may need different packaging choices than a DTC bundle, TikTok Shop product or practitioner handout.
The channel affects case packs, shipping weight, barcode needs, insert cards and how customers experience the product.
Do not separate packaging from manufacturing
Packaging should be discussed while the formula and production plan are being built. Waiting creates rework.
GIH brings packaging and labeling into the manufacturing plan so finished goods are easier to store, ship and reorder.
