Most manufacturers answer this question with silence. We answer it — with cost blocks and real ranges, without a headline number that does not survive the quote.
| Raw materials | The largest block. Driven by active, dosage and quality grade. Between a standard magnesium and a patented extract there is easily a factor of five. |
| Manufacturing | Setup, filling, encapsulation or compression. Charged per batch — the share per unit drops sharply with volume. |
| Primary packaging | Jar, pouch, blister, bottle plus closure and desiccant. Fixed order quantities at the supplier, often the hidden cost driver on small batches. |
| Label & print | Design, printing plates, material choice. Higher one-off on the first run, material cost only afterwards. |
| Regulatory | Claim review, mandatory information, registration in the target market. Manageable in the EU, a project step of its own in the Gulf states. |
| Analysis & release | Batch analysis, documentation, release. Per batch, regardless of volume. |
| Logistics | Transport, customs, import duties. Depends on the incoterm — under DAP we carry more than under EXW and the price reflects that. |
The calculator deliberately returns a range. It does not replace a quote — it tells you whether your budget is in the right order of magnitude.
Estimate based on current material and production costs. Not a binding quote.
Your binding number comes from the quote — real formulation, real raw material prices, real calculation.
We do not quote an entry price that only holds at one specific volume with one specific raw material. Numbers like that pull in enquiries and cost trust in the conversation. Hence ranges — and a binding figure as soon as we know what we are dealing with.
