Every product on the shelves has gone through manufacturing and packaging. In the contract manufacturing of food supplements, a specialised company takes on these steps on behalf of a brand or a retailer.
How manufacturing works
It starts with blending the raw materials: various substances are brought together in defined quantities and mixed. After that the product is given its final form.
- Tablets are pressed from the powder. Most contain excipients that provide stability, for example.
- Capsules are filled and closed again.
- Other forms are sticks, sachets, granules and powders.
Counting and packaging
Finally, the products are counted and, depending on the process, packed in jars, blisters or folding cartons. They are then ready for sale.
If you would like to know which form and packaging suit your product, we will be happy to advise you.
