Health & Wellness Packaging in New Bedford, MA
New Bedford is the Whaling City — once the richest city in America on the strength of the whaling industry, and today home to the most valuable fishing port on the East Coast of the United States, with a commercial fishing fleet that lands hundreds of millions of dollars in seafood annually. The city's extraordinary arts community, a nationally recognized folk art tradition, and a growing creative economy in the historic downtown add cultural depth to New Bedford's maritime commercial character.

Why Choose Us for Health & Wellness Packaging
Custom Health and Wellness Packaging | Supplement and Vitamin Boxes for Premium Brands
Health and wellness packaging serves one of the fastest-growing consumer goods categories -- the dietary supplement, vitamin, functional food, and wellness product segment where packaging must communicate nutritional credibility, ingredient transparency, and premium quality to a consumer base that reads labels with sophisticated nutritional literacy and evaluates packaging quality as a proxy for product quality and brand trustworthiness.
FDA Supplement Labeling Requirements
Dietary supplement packaging in the US must comply with FDA 21 CFR Part 101.36 Supplement Facts panel requirements and 21 CFR Part 101 general food labeling. Required elements include the Supplement Facts panel showing serving size, servings per container, and dietary ingredients with quantities and daily values. Structure-function claims require the standard disclaimer that the statement has not been evaluated by the FDA and the product is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease. Allergen declarations are required for the FDA Big 9 allergens.
Premium Supplement Packaging Positioning
The premium health supplement category has adopted packaging quality standards that communicate brand credibility and product investment: 18pt or 24pt SBS cardstock with soft-touch matte lamination, third-party certification mark placement (NSF, USP, Informed Sport), and clean minimalist design language that communicates clinical precision. For supplement brands competing at premium price points, packaging quality is a brand credibility tool -- consumers who pay $60-$120 for a supplement expect the packaging's quality to be consistent with the product's investment claim.
Supplement Facts Compliance on Packaging
The Supplement Facts panel is a mandatory, precisely-formatted labeling element that must appear on the information panel of every dietary supplement. FDA 21 CFR Part 101.36 specifies the exact format including the panel header, serving size, servings per container, and the dietary ingredient listing with quantities and percent daily values where established. The structure-function claim disclaimer must appear on the label in at least 4 point type. Our supplement packaging dieline templates pre-position all required labeling elements to FDA formatting requirements.
Third-Party Certification as Premium Supplement Signal
In the supplement category where product quality verification is a primary consumer concern -- because supplement potency and ingredient quality cannot be verified by consumers from the label alone -- third-party certification marks function as the most credible quality communication available. NSF International, USP Verified, Informed Sport, and Banned Substance Control Group certification marks communicate independent quality verification that brand marketing cannot replicate. For supplement brands with third-party certification, these marks should be prominently displayed on the principal display panel.

Health & Wellness Packaging in New Bedford — FAQs
What FDA labeling is required on supplement packaging?
Required elements include the Supplement Facts panel in FDA-prescribed format, the structure-function claim disclaimer if any structure-function claims appear, ingredient list, net quantity on the principal display panel, manufacturer or distributor name and address, and allergen declarations for FDA Big 9 allergens present. The disclaimer must state that the statement has not been evaluated by the FDA and the product is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease.
Can supplement packaging display third-party certification marks?
Yes. NSF, USP, Informed Sport, and other third-party certification marks are placed on the principal display panel based on visual hierarchy. Certification marks must comply with each certifying body's co-branding guidelines for size, placement, and surrounding space. Prominent certification mark placement is strongly recommended for brands with these credentials.
What cardstock weight is standard for supplement packaging?
18pt SBS is standard for mass supplement retail. 24pt SBS is recommended for premium supplement positioning where box rigidity in hand communicates quality investment. Soft-touch matte laminated 24pt SBS is the premium supplement standard for brands competing in the sports nutrition and functional wellness premium tiers.
Can supplement packaging make disease treatment claims?
No. Disease treatment claims are not permitted on dietary supplements under DSHEA. Structure-function claims describing how an ingredient affects normal body structure or function are permitted with the required disclaimer. Disease claims on supplement packaging can result in FDA warning letters and product reclassification as an unapproved drug.
