In today's highly regulated nutraceutical landscape, selecting a China contract packaging manufacturer and OEM supplier is no longer just about per-unit cost. Overseas buyers must evaluate six crucial operational dimensions: traceability of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), standardized barrier packaging technology, compliance with international GMP/Health Canada standards, anti-counterfeiting serialization, microencapsulation stability, and end-to-end turnkey logistics.
Operating across softgels, compressed tablets, hard gelatin/veggie capsules, pectin gummies, oral liquid syrups, and ultra-fine powder blends under unified quality specifications.
Fully aligned with Health Canada Site Licence standards, ISO 22000, and FDA cGMP protocols, providing batch-level Certificates of Analysis (CoA) for seamless customs clearance.
Complete documentation kits including NPN support, Certificates of Free Sale (CFS), stability testing data, and custom label compliance reviews across 35+ global markets.

Global retailers are enforcing plastic-reduction mandates. Leading contract packaging facilities are transitioning from traditional PVC/PVDC blisters to recyclable Mono-PP films, bio-based PLA sachets, and PCR (Post-Consumer Recycled) resin bottles without sacrificing moisture and oxygen barrier properties.
Consumer preference is shifting toward portable, single-serve dosage forms. Liquid stick-packs for hydrolyzed collagen and powder sachets for pre-workout formulas offer convenience, precise dosing, and superior oxygen exclusion over large multi-serve tubs.
High-value functional supplements like TUDCA, Shilajit, and Marine Collagen face brand imitation in overseas markets. Modern OEM packaging incorporates laser-engraved 2D DataMatrix codes, tamper-evident induction seals, and serialized QR codes linked to real-time batch verification platforms.
Bulk softgels and capsules never leave our cleanroom environments prior to finishing. Bottling, blister sealing, liquid filling, cartoning, and shrink wrapping operate under unified batch records.
Every batch undergoes triple-stage testing: raw material identity (FTIR/HPLC), in-process fill weight uniformity, and finished product assay, heavy metal, and microbial release clearance.
Your custom formulas, custom packaging designs, and brand concepts remain strictly your intellectual property under enforceable non-disclosure agreements.
Streamlined supply chain workflows ensure pilot samples are delivered within 7–10 days, with full commercial scale-up completed within 3 to 4 weeks.
MOQs vary depending on the chosen dosage form and packaging format. Solid dosage forms such as tablets and two-piece capsules typically start at lower minimums (e.g., 50,000 to 100,000 units), whereas softgel encapsulation and gummy production lines require larger minimum batch volumes (e.g., 300,000 softgels or gummies) to ensure dose uniformity and machine fill stability. Powder sachets and liquid filling lines offer flexible tier pricing starting from 10,000 sachets.
A standard turnkey OEM project follows a 6-stage lifecycle: 1) Initial Consultation & Formula Briefing, 2) R&D Formulation & Quoting (3–5 days), 3) Pilot Sampling & Regulatory Review (7–10 days), 4) Packaging Artwork Design & Approval, 5) cGMP Manufacturing & Quality Control (2–3 weeks), and 6) In-House Packaging & Export Release (1 week). Existing stock formulations can ship significantly faster.
Yes. Our in-house regulatory affairs team manages full documentation support including complete Certificates of Analysis (CoA) for every lot, Certificates of Free Sale (CFS), Health Canada NPN licensing support, Heavy Metal & Microbiological Analysis reports, BSE/TSE-Free Certificates, Halal certification documentation, and customs compliance support for over 35 countries.
We operate fully integrated packaging cleanrooms capable of handling PET/HDPE bottling with induction sealing, blister packaging (Alu-Alu and Alu-PVC), liquid sachet stick-packs, powder sachet filling, capsule & tablet combo blister packs, display cartoning, and shrink bundling. All primary and secondary packaging is performed under strict batch-record controls.
Your brand retains 100% intellectual property ownership of all custom formulations, proprietary ingredient ratios, packaging artwork, and brand identity assets. Non-Disclosure Agreements (NDAs) are executed before technical discussion to safeguard your proprietary business assets.
