The right packaging and labeling is a key component in the success of your private label products. There are a number of considerations and options related to selecting labeling and packaging.
Bulk Products
Life Root can supply many skin care products in bulk. This allows customers to make packaging decisions independent of the design and preparation process. Note that products which set, such as face creams and skin creams, must usually be packaged by Life Root at time of preparation.
Stock Containers
Life Root can supply any of our products in our private label stock containers. (see above picture) These containers have been pre-selected for their suitability and durability, ahd have been used successfully for many years in our wholesale and retail business.
Label Design
Label deisgn and printing is typically managed directly by customers. In the event that you are using Life Root stock containers, we can provide you with sample labels to ensure that you create labels of the correct size. We can also direct you to our graphic designer, who designed both the LIfe Root Healing and Finally Pure and Natural Body Care designs.
Label Application
Life Root can apply labels to containers at time of preparation. Note that since our products are handmade, we also apply labels by hand. As such, any labels that we apply must conform to standard, and must be pre-approved. In particular, labels must varnished to avoid damage from oil based products, and labels must be easily pealed from backing with precut breaks. Please contact us beforehand if you have any questions.
Customer Supplied Containers
Customers may select their own containers and send them to us, prior to product preparation, for filling). There are a huge variety of packaging suppliers and packaging types, and we encourage customers to identify the best packaging for their market.
Container Selection Considerations
Customers should provide us with a sample container prior to making a commitment to ensure suitability. We suggest that all creams and scrubs be packaged in double walled plastic containers or glass containers, both for durability in shipping and because they contain essential oil. Oil-based products should be in colored plastics or colored glass to filter UV and extend shelf life. Products with large amounts of essential oils should be packaged in suitable plastic or glass containers. The use of customer supplied containers may require slightly larger minimum orders; however minimum order quantities will remain lower than competitive suppliers, and small orders are welcomed.
Container Storage
Life Root can store customer's containers at our location for safekeeping and quicker order fulfillment usually at no extra charge.
