About This Packaging
Protein powder, creatine, BCAA, and sports supplement packaging is a specialist category requiring high barrier and resealable construction. Protein powders are hygroscopic (attract moisture), making WVTR ≤0.3 g/m²/day critical. UV-sensitive vitamins and bioactive compounds also demand a light barrier.
MyPlast produces protein and sports supplement packaging in ISO 22000 certified facilities. Anti-static coatings prevent powder from sticking to the inner bag surface. Resealable zipper ensures product freshness and reclosability.
Barrier Requirements
The barrier hierarchy for protein packaging follows this order:
1. **Moisture barrier (top priority):** WVTR ≤0.3 g/m²/day — prevents protein clumping and spoilage 2. **Oxygen barrier:** OTR ≤5 cc/m²/day — slows BCAA degradation 3. **Light barrier:** Metalised coating or aluminium foil for fat-soluble vitamins (A, D, E, K) 4. **Anti-static:** Inner surface anti-static coating for powder products
Material Options
- 1Two common structures are recommended for sports supplement packaging:
- 2**Matte aluminium doypack (BOPET/Al/LLDPE):** Fully opaque, excellent light barrier, WVTR ≤0.1 g/m²/day. The most preferred structure among premium protein brands. Matte surface does not show fingerprints and delivers a premium appearance.
- 3**Glossy aluminium doypack (BOPET/Al/LLDPE — glossy):** Glossy metallic appearance with high shelf impact. Both structures include resealable zipper and side gusset as standard.
Packaging Format Options
Standard formats for protein powder: 16×27 cm (4+4 gusset) for 500 g, 20×30 cm (5+5 gusset) for 1 kg, 25×34 cm (6+6 gusset) for 2 kg+. Resealable zipper is standard across all sizes.
For sachet and single-serve products, small sizes 8.5×14.5 or 11×18.5 cm are used. VFFS reel supply minimum order is 200 kg per specification.
Certification & Food Safety
MyPlast packaging is produced under ISO 22000 Food Safety Management System. All food-contact materials are migration-tested for compliance with EU Regulation 10/2011. These certifications ensure your products meet market entry requirements for the EU, GCC and Turkish markets.
MOQ & Ordering Process
Stock MOQ is 1,000 pieces with a 3–5 business day lead time. For custom-print orders, MOQ is 3,000 pieces with 14-40 business day lead time. For VFFS/flowpack reel supply, minimum 200 kg per reel specification applies.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is anti-static coating necessary for protein powder packaging?
Strongly recommended. Without anti-static treatment, protein powder clings to the interior, causing dosing errors and user dissatisfaction. MyPlast applies inner surface anti-static treatment as standard on aluminium constructions.
Which certifications are required for sports supplement packaging?
Food Safety Standard and ISO 22000 are required for sports supplement packaging. For EU market products, EU Regulation 10/2011 migration testing is mandatory. MyPlast holds both certifications.
