Food Supplements
Formulation · dosage form · packaging · EU labelling
The category where the paperwork is part of the product.
Food supplements enter the EU under a stricter regime than most consumer goods: permitted ingredients, dosage ceilings, claim wording and label layout are fixed in advance. A well-made bottle does not compensate for a label that cannot be sold.
We work back from the formulation and the intended claims to the dosage form and the packaging, so that what is approved is what ships. We do not write health claims beyond what EU rules permit.
The four points where this category is decided.
- 01Formulation review against EU supplement rules
- 02Dosage form: capsule, tablet, powder, liquid
- 03Claim wording and label artwork review
- 04Batch documentation and stability records
Volumes, tooling and lead times are agreed per project — they follow the material and the finishing, not a price list.
Answered before the meeting.
Manufacturer and site documents reviewed before quotation
Label and claim review completed before print
Batch certificates issued with each shipment
German notification, claim wording under Regulation (EC) 1924/2006 and novel-food status are checked before a formula is quoted. The manufacturer holds these documents; we verify them and do not issue them ourselves.
Certificates and test reports are held by the manufacturer or the test house, and are supplied as copies with the documents for each shipment.
