Food supplements

Supplement labels for tubs, jars and pouches

Printed labels for capsules, tablets, powders and liquid supplements, with one consistent design for every variety and room for all mandatory information.

Benefits for your application

The key selection benefits at a glance.

One consistent design for every variety

A shared base layout holds the product family together; colour and variety name tell the individual products apart.

Enough space for mandatory information

We plan the area so that intake recommendation, warnings and ingredients stay legible. If one layer is not enough, a multi-layer label adds room.

Batch and best before date printed in

We print changing details directly onto the label with coding units or inkjet, with a barcode or QR code on request.

Suited to tubs, jars and pouches

We choose material and adhesive by container: paper for tubs and jars, flexible PP or PE film for pouches.

Specification

Supplement labels from Hummel Print

Labels for supplements and other food supplements have to do two things: show the brand on the shelf and fit the required information legibly. We print them for tubs, jars and pouches, in one design for the whole product family and with batch and best before date for every production run.

Our media designers prepare the print data in prepress. Before the production run you receive a proof and, on request, samples on the material of your choice.

  • Face material of paper, PP film or PE film
  • Flexo printing with up to 8 colours in one pass, spot colours to Pantone or HKS, varnish on request
  • Inkjet digital printing for short runs and many varieties
  • Variable data such as batch, best before date, barcode and QR code
  • Multi-layer labels for multilingual information
  • On rolls for your labelling machine, fanfolded or on sheets
  • Migration-safe adhesive where the packaging requires it
Mandatory information under EU and German rules

Labelling

Mandatory information under EU and German rules

Food supplements are food. In addition to the information required by the EU Food Information Regulation (FIC, Regulation (EU) No 1169/2011), the German Food Supplements Regulation (NemV) requires these statements on the pack:

As the manufacturer you are responsible for the content of your information. We make sure it fits on the label and stays legible.

  • the name "food supplement"
  • the names of the characterising nutrients or other substances
  • the recommended daily portion
  • a warning not to exceed this amount
  • a statement that the product is not a substitute for a varied and balanced diet
  • a statement that the product should be stored out of the reach of young children

Applications

Typical applications

Vitamin and mineral supplements

Capsules and tablets in tubs or jars, often in many active ingredients and pack sizes within one product line.

Sports supplements and protein powders

Large tubs and stand-up pouches need labels that fit the shape and hold during filling and transport.

Liquid supplements and shots

Small bottles offer little space for a lot of information. A multi-layer label helps here.

Own brands of pharmacies and drugstores

One design for many products that changes only in colour and name per variety.

Contract manufacturers with many client brands

Changing designs in short runs, printed digitally and traceable through batch and code.

For round containers of metal or plastic, the page Can labels has more information; general food requirements are covered on the page Food labels.
