When a tablet fits
Tablets fit ranges that need a clinical-style daily-use SKU, a robust shelf life, or a pharmacy-channel presentation.
- Clinical-style multivitamin and mineral daily ranges.
- Pharmacy-channel SKUs in blister format.
- High-volume daily-use ranges where unit economics matter.
Pick the route that matches the brief.
Every project moves through one of three routes. Final routing is confirmed inside the portal — the route shapes the documentation set and the timeline.
Reviewed concept, brand artwork.
Pick a reviewed pectin-gummy concept from the catalogue and adapt brand artwork. The fastest path from brief to launch — packaging, claims and documentation are reviewed against the target market.
- Best for
- First gummy SKU · short timelines
- Lead time
- Confirmed in the quote
Adjusted within an existing matrix.
Adjust dose, flavour or active stack within an existing matrix. Differentiate the SKU without a full custom-development cycle. Documentation route follows the same project gates.
