There’s no one-size-fits-all timeline—every project is different. If you’re starting with a brand-new formulation, additional steps like prototyping, compatibility testing, and pilot batches can add 6–8 weeks.
Once development and testing are complete, most production lead times range from 4–8 weeks, depending on the manufacturer and packaging complexity. Projects with custom components or specialized compliance needs may take longer.
We’ll give you a realistic timeline during the consultation, based on your specific goals and requirements.

Minimums vary depending on the product, packaging, and co-packer. While some options require higher volumes, we’ll help you explore the most efficient path for your launch—whether that’s a smaller run or a ready-to-go formula.

-
We focus on product development and manufacturing. However, we’ve worked with many brands selling through Amazon, DTC, and retail, and can refer you to trusted partners for marketplace setup, marketing, and distribution strategy.
-
We bring deep experience in navigating regulatory requirements and can guide you through the basics of compliance, SDS documentation, and label standards.
That said, for custom formulations or products with complex claims, we recommend working directly with a chemist or regulatory consultant. Many of our trusted co-packers have in-house teams, and we’re happy to make referrals if needed.
For label reviews and legal considerations, we always suggest consulting a legal expert to ensure full compliance—especially if you’re selling in multiple regions or countries.
Our goal is to help you build a safe, compliant product—and to involve the right specialists when it matters most.
