The herbal supplement market continues to expand as consumers seek plant-based wellness products. With that growth comes a greater need for packaging that protects potency, safety, and product stability throughout the supply chain. Herbal supplements, whether capsules, powders, extracts, or tinctures, require packaging that controls temperature, limits moisture exposure, and meets regulatory standards. Proper packaging also supports cGMP, FDA, and industry-required quality standards by protecting herbal supplements from environmental and transit-related risks.

Nature-Pack™ delivers sustainable, temperature-controlled packaging solutions engineered to preserve the integrity of herbal supplements from manufacturing to end-user delivery.

The Importance of Sustainable Packaging for Herbal Supplements

Herbal supplements are sensitive to environmental conditions such as humidity, oxygen, and temperature fluctuations. Without proper packaging, these variables can impact product quality, shelf life, and regulatory compliance.

Nature-Pack™ helps brands overcome these challenges with eco-friendly packaging designed for controlled-environment applications.

Eco-Friendly Packaging Solutions for Herbal Supplement Shipping

Nature-Pack™ offers a full range of sustainable, protective packaging solutions engineered to safeguard herbal supplements during storage, handling, and transit. These systems support both direct-to-consumer shipments and large-scale distribution, and are tailored to meet the specific stability and moisture requirements of herbal supplement formulations.

Fibrease® Wood Foam Insulation

Provides reliable temperature and moisture control to protect herbal supplements that are sensitive to environmental changes. Ideal for powders, capsules, and botanical blends that require consistent conditions to maintain potency and prevent clumping or degradation.

Biocooler® Insulated Shipping Containers

A fully recyclable insulated container designed for herbal supplements that require cold-chain or controlled room-temperature shipping. Helps maintain stability for extracts, tinctures, probiotics, and other temperature-sensitive formulations during longer transit times.

Biomailer® Compostable Padded Mailers

A lightweight, fiber-based mailer that offers protective cushioning for smaller herbal supplement shipments. Perfect for direct-to-consumer orders of bottles, pouches, blister packs, or sample kits, and an eco-friendly alternative to plastic-based padded mailers.

Nature-Ice™ Gel Refrigerants

Eco-friendly gel packs that support cold-chain herbal supplement shipping by maintaining 2–8°C or 15–25°C temperature ranges. Ideal for stabilizing liquid botanicals, probiotic blends, and extracts when paired with Fibrease® or Biocooler® insulated packaging systems.

Shipping Tips

When shipping herbal supplements, it is essential to follow all applicable industry standards and regulatory compliance requirements, including temperature control.

The packaging must be capable of withstanding the rigors of transit to prevent damage, contamination, or spillage. Primary containers should be sealed to maintain product integrity and prevent moisture ingress, which can degrade the products’ efficacy.

For temperature-sensitive herbal products requiring cold chain logistics, the secondary packaging must utilize appropriate insulated materials and refrigerants (like gel packs) to maintain specific temperature ranges during transport.

Common cold chain temperature ranges include refrigerated (2-8 degrees C) or controlled room temperature (15-25 degrees) with specific requirements dependent on the products stability data.
