Regulations Shaping Supplement Packaging in 2026

Three regulatory themes keep coming up in supplement packaging programmes.

Food-contact documentation

Buyers increasingly ask for migration evidence and a declaration of compliance per structure, rather than a generic material statement.

Extended producer responsibility

Recycling and packaging-fee rules favour mono-material and lighter formats, which pushes back on multi-material gift packs.

Labelling

Origin and ingredient labelling changes continue to affect pack sizes and artwork, and therefore the printable area.
