Tube Packaging for Nutrition Supplements

Great packaging shows the world what you stand for, makes people remember your brand, and helps potential customers understand if your product is right for them.

Packaging for Powdered Supplements

Health and nutrition products often come in powder form which makes it important for their packaging to be tamper-proof and fully sealed. This allows for a long shelf life and maintains the integrity of the product. It is also helpful if the packaging can display nutritional information for consumers.

Resealable bags are a popular choice for protein powders and other types of powder supplements. They are easy to open and close and provide the added benefit of being eco-friendly as they use less plastic than traditional jars.

This type of bottle embodies the characteristics that most likely led to the passage of the Pure Food and Drug Act in 1906. The use of the word "cure" in the embossing or labeling on these bottles likely ended with this act though it may have been used for a bit longer.

Bottles such as this were typically made by local druggists that concocted their own medicinal compounds. They are usually found with their name and store, city/state and other information embossed on them. They are generally classified in the large category of patent/proprietary medicine bottles (aka druggist bottles).

Buckets are a useful storage container for powdered supplements. The ice buckets are made from clear plastic and have screw-on lids, making them easy to open and close.

Tube Feeding Formulas

For patients who have a gastrostomy tube or jejunostomy tube, there are several liquid formulas for long-term tube feeding. These can be used as the sole source of nutritional support or as a supplement to the patient's regular diet. These include multi-nutrient, high-calorie and dietary fiber formulas.

Standard tube-feeding formulas are isotonic and designed for adults and children who have normal digestion. They are rich in protein, fats and carbohydrates. Proteins are extracted from milk and soybeans, and carbohydrate sources can include maltodextrins, polysaccharides and all types of sugar.

Specialized formulas are available for patients with a variety of disease states and conditions. These may have higher caloric density or a lower osmolality than regular formulas to prevent fluid overload and diarrhea. A physician or nurse should be consulted to determine the correct formula for each patient.
