The boundary

Two things we customise. Everything else is yours.

We are a manufacturer, not an agency. Our side of the line is the product and the tin it ships in. The brand, the marketing and the route to market stay with you.

Ways to work

Three ways to work.

Private label, white label and OEM mean different things at different factories. Here, one question decides which you need: whose recipe is it?

01

Private label

Our recipe. Your name.

Pick flavours and strengths from our library, put your artwork on our tin, and launch. The shortest route from brief to shelf.

Recipe
From the BeSane library
You bring
Artwork and a target market
Best for
A first launch, or testing a new market
02

Custom formulation

A new recipe, built to your brief.

We develop a formula to your strength, flavour and format targets, sample it, and refine it with you until it is right. Elsewhere this is often sold as white label or OEM.

Developed for you
You bring
A brief: taste, strength, format, market
Best for
A range that has to be your own
03

Contract manufacturing

Your recipe. Our line.

You supply the formula and the specification. We source to it, fill, pack and test every batch on our own line.

Process

Brief to dispatch, in five steps.

Most projects reach production in eight to twelve weeks. The longest part is getting the sample right, which is the part worth taking time over.

01

Brief & NDA

Week 0

Tell us the market, format, strengths, flavours and volumes. We sign an NDA before anything technical changes hands.

02

Samples

About 4 weeks

We make samples to the brief. Three rounds of revision are included, and stability testing runs alongside.

03

Approval

Your sign-off

You approve the formula and the artwork. We confirm the final specification in writing, with the certificate of analysis for the approved sample.

04

Production

About 4 weeks

Filled, sealed and packed in your tins. No batch is released until it has passed testing.

05

Handover

Dispatch

Released batches leave with their certificates. Repeat orders run from the approved specification.

Facility & quality

Every batch tested. Every result on paper.

Each batch is tested by an independent laboratory before it is released, and leaves with its certificate of analysis. The results are yours to keep, and to show your regulator.

Test 03

Microbiology

Total viable count, yeast and mould, and pathogen screening on every batch.

Test 04

Tobacco-specific nitrosamines, tested to confirm non-detection. There is no leaf in the supply chain.

Straight answers

What businesses ask first

Factories use those words differently, so we define our models by one question: whose recipe is it? Private label uses ours, custom formulation is developed for you, and contract manufacturing runs yours. If you are unsure, say so in the enquiry and we will recommend one.

5,000 tins per order. Quotes are banded by volume: 5,000–10,000, 10,000–50,000, 50,000–100,000 and 100,000+ tins.

Samples take about four weeks from the brief. Production takes about four weeks from sign-off. Most projects reach production in eight to twelve weeks, most of it spent getting the sample right.

Yes. That is contract manufacturing: you supply the formula and specification, we source to it, run it on our line, and test every batch before release.

It is agreed in writing before development starts, alongside the NDA. Nothing about ownership is left to assumption.

That depends on the model and the brief. Sample terms are set out in your quote, before any work begins.

We produce it. Send finished artwork, or we prepare print-ready files from your brand assets. Brand strategy and identity design stay with you.

The ones your target market requires. Warning text, nicotine content and batch print are set per market and cannot be removed from the design. Artwork is checked before production, and we decline designs aimed at young people.

A certificate of analysis for every batch, the final specification, and the product documentation you need for filings in your market. The filings themselves are yours.

Only those where tobacco-free nicotine pouches can be sold legally. Name yours in the enquiry and we will confirm what is possible before we quote.
