Process.

Using consumer insights to design dietary supplement brands and packaging experiences.

We start with consumer testing—not design. Our Category Baseline identifies the purchase drivers unique to supplements, from efficacy cues and ingredient credibility to packaging claims, to develop the blueprint for a design system that consistently drives trial, repeat purchase, and trust across retail and e-commerce.

Every design iteration is pressure-tested with supplement shoppers, ensuring your brand identity and packaging not only resonate but also outperform competitors before it ever reaches the shelf.

Winning the dietary supplements aisle with proven design.

We leverage consumer-driven insights to prioritize what matters most—highlighting clinically backed ingredients, simplifying function-forward messaging, and refining claims for credibility and impact.

Our process integrates strategy, design, and predictive testing into a single, data-driven workflow. That means no wasted time, no guesswork, and no subjective opinions. Every design we create or SKU redesign is validated with customers, ensuring your brand earns attention, trust, and loyalty at the moment of decision.

Frequently asked questions about dietary supplement packaging design services.

How do you determine the right purchase drivers for my supplements?

We start with a Category Baseline to map how shoppers evaluate efficacy, ingredient quality, price sensitivity, and choice overload in the dietary supplement industry, then prioritize the drivers that are most vital to your branding strategy.

How do you handle regulated claims and FDA labeling requirements?

Regulatory language and claim risk are baked into the process. We audit label copy, flag SF vs. drug-claim exposure, add required daggers and asterisks, and iterate copy to preserve benefit clarity while avoiding prohibited claims—then include those checks in pre-production.

Will the design work across formats (capsules, gummies, powders, sachets, RTD)?

Yes. We design scalable systems and test across hero SKUs and formats so the visual system is ownable yet flexible for gummies, capsules, powder, sachets, and RTD. We explicitly model format differences (photo style, hierarchy, usage cues) during concepting and testing.

What’s the difference between a packaging refresh and a full rebrand?

A refresh renovates existing equities—updating visuals, hierarchy, and claims to improve clarity and shelf impact—while retaining your core brand DNA. Rebranding we do redefines positioning, identity, and packaging from the ground up.

How do you balance unified brand identity with shopper “shopability” across SKUs?

We create a master brand system with deliberate signals (age/gender cues, need-state bands, color codes or iconography) so people can find the right SKU quickly while the portfolio retains a coherent look. 

How do you optimize packaging for e-commerce vs. brick-and-mortar?

We test concepts in both contexts and intentionally include a mix of brick-and-mortar competitors in baseline tests (because retail packaging must “work harder” on shelf). We then adapt assets—hero imagery, PDP crop, lifestyle shots, and claim hierarchy—so the message lands in feed, PDP, and cart.

Can you help with brand architecture and SKU rationalization?

Yes—portfolio architecture is a defined phase. We map hero SKUs, cluster need-states and create roll-out strategies so extensions (flavors, ages, formats) sit in a consistent hierarchy that aids cross-sell and prevents cannibalization.

How do you make complex ingredient science simple and credible on pack?

We translate clinical language into clear, consumer-meaningful benefit statements, use hierarchy to surface the one-line benefit, and back it with transparent Supplement Facts and “clinically tested” cues only where legally supportable. 

Do you include photography and asset production in the scope?

Yes—we plan photography during concept selection. The team recommends shooting grouped or product-specific hero shots when layouts require natural shadows or groupings. Otherwise, we optimize existing assets.

Can you renovate a brand identity without changing the packaging?

For supplement brands where packaging equities are strong, we can renovate verbal and visual identity—tone of voice, messaging hierarchy, digital presence—while leaving packaging mostly intact. This allows us to update your brand expression across touchpoints without disrupting retail continuity.

How will we know the winning design will actually convert?

Our Purchase-Intent test simulates real shopping choices and pits your concepts against competitors with price context. We report PI lift and other predictive KPIs so decisions are evidence-based—not subjective.
