Royal Jelly Liquid Manufacturer for Private Label Brands

The plant runs four liquid filling lines. Two handle 10–50 ml dropper and spray bottles at 8,000–12,000 units per shift. One line fills 50–250 ml amber glass and PET at 6,000–9,000 units per shift. The fourth line produces 5–30 g stick packs at 30,000–45,000 units per shift. Changeover takes 2–4 hours, including a full CIP cycle.

For royal jelly, we recommend amber glass with a nitrogen flush for fresh suspensions, or PET with an induction seal for freeze-dried solutions. Both formats protect 10-HDA from light and oxygen. Sachets suit single-serve travel and subscription packs. We can also fill aluminium tubes for topical-adjacent formats, though the primary use remains oral.

Royal jelly arrives as fresh frozen paste or freeze-dried powder. Fresh paste is held at -18°C and thawed in batches under 4°C. Freeze-dried powder is stored at ambient in sealed foil. We blend with carriers such as glycerin, propylene glycol, or honey. Preservative options include potassium sorbate and sodium benzoate at 0.1%–0.2%, or a natural system based on citrus extract and nisin for clean-label briefs.

Typical formulations use 2%–5% freeze-dried royal jelly in water or glycerin, adjusted to pH 3.8–4.5 for stability. Flavour masking matters: royal jelly has a sharp, slightly bitter note. We stock natural flavours — honey, berry, citrus, vanilla — and can match a reference sample. For vegan claims, note that royal jelly is an animal product; we produce separate vegan lines for bee-free alternatives.

Every incoming royal jelly lot is tested for 10-HDA by HPLC, moisture, and microbial load. In-process checks cover pH, viscosity, fill weight, and seal integrity every 30 minutes. Finished goods are held for 5–7 days for stability and micro release. Shelf life is typically 18–24 months for preserved liquids, 12 months for fresh-style refrigerated formats.

The facility is GMP, ISO 22000, and HACCP certified. Halal certificates are available for the relevant lines. Organic certification ( and EU organic) applies when you supply certified organic royal jelly and we run the batch on a dedicated organic line. We are an FDA-registered facility for US-bound shipments. Documentation includes COA, MSDS, and full traceability from apiary to batch.

Royal jelly liquid is filled into amber glass bottles (10–500 ml), PET bottles (30–250 ml), and stick sachets (5–30 g). Amber glass is standard for light-sensitive formulations, while PET is used for larger formats where cost and shatter resistance matter. Stick sachets are filled on a vertical form-fill-seal line with nitrogen flushing to reduce dissolved oxygen below 2 mg/L. All primary packaging materials are food-grade and supplied with migration test certificates.

Labels must include the product name, net quantity, ingredient list, allergen statement, supplement facts panel (for US) or nutrition declaration (for EU), lot code, best-before date, storage conditions, and manufacturer or distributor details. We print lot and expiry codes by inkjet on the bottle base or sachet seal. For Amazon FNSKU labelling, we apply the FNSKU barcode over the existing barcode or print it directly on the label. Cartons are standard 5-ply corrugated with a maximum weight of 15 kg. Pallets are 1200 x 800 mm or 1200 x 1000 mm, stretch-wrapped and corner-boarded for export.

For retail readiness, we can apply tamper-evident seals, shrink bands, and child-resistant closures where required. We do not provide retail packaging design, but we can advise on label dimensions and placement to meet FDA 21 CFR 101 and EU 1169/2011 requirements. All artwork must be approved by the brand owner before printing. We keep a digital archive of approved artwork for 3 years.

Sample lead time is 7–10 working days from receipt of your specification and packaging requirements. Samples are provided free of charge for standard formulations, but you pay courier costs. Mass production takes 20–35 working days after deposit and artwork approval. This includes raw material procurement (7–10 days), production (5–7 days), QC testing (5 days), and packing (3–5 days). Peak season (September to November) may add 5–7 days.

We ship by air or sea. Air freight is typically 5–7 days door-to-door for 100–500 kg, while sea freight is 25–35 days for full container loads. We offer EXW, FOB Shenzhen or Hong Kong, and DDP for most destinations. DDP includes customs clearance and duties, but we require a complete list of restricted ingredients for your country. For US shipments, we provide FDA prior notice and a US agent if needed. For EU shipments, we provide an EU importer address if you do not have one.

Documents provided with each shipment include the certificate of analysis, material safety data sheet (MSDS), free sale certificate, and phytosanitary certificate where applicable. We also provide a packing list, commercial invoice, and bill of lading. For halal or organic claims, we can supply certificates from our raw material suppliers, but we do not hold halal certification for the finished product. All documents are issued in English and can be legalised by a notary or chamber of commerce on request.
