Regardless of whether you’re selling vitamins, natural supplements, or homeopathic baby remedies, South Africa’s health and wellness market mandates that your packaging does more than just present an attractive front. It is imperative that it aligns with SAHPRA’s complementary medicines regulations and clearly communicates essential information (while somehow standing out in busy pharmacies and retail chains).

Upgrade Your Health Product Packaging with SAHPRA-Ready Labelling

Pyrotec PackMedia’s specialist labelling solutions help improve compliance, shelf impact, and consumer trust for health product manufacturers. Metallic label finishes and custom foil labels are just a few options that are guaranteed to grab the attention of passing shoppers.

The health supplements market in South Africa continues to expand in a “healthy” manner, from immune boosters and women’s health supplements to heart health supplements, baby homeopathic products, and gentle, natural baby remedies. All this means competition for shelf space is intensifying as well.

At the same time, SAHPRA’s evolving expectations for health supplements in South Africa and the complementary medicines Category D in South Africa place a strong focus on accurate, transparent labelling.
 

Navigating SAHPRA Complementary Medicines Regulations

SAHPRA complementary medicines regulations and SAHPRA labelling requirements require supplements to provide comprehensive information on the following:

• Ingredients and active components
• Dosage and directions for use
• Warnings, precautions, and contraindications
• Storage and batch/expiry details
• Multilingual wording where required
• Font size readability

For many Nutraceutical labelling in South Africa, this is more content than a standard label can comfortably accommodate, especially on small-format packs such as sprays, droppers, and baby products. 

That’s where Pyrotec PackMedia’s multipage leaflet labels offer a strategic advantage.

Our Informational Leaflet Labels and Butterfly Labels offer up to three times the communication space of a conventional label, making them ideal for:

• Pharmaceutical leaflet labels
• Booklet labels for medicine
• Butterfly labels for medicine
• Complex homoeopathic product labels

You can include well-aligned content, multilingual copy, and even promotional messaging in a single integrated label, without needing to redesign the entire pack.

Premium Labels for Vitamins, Homoeopathic & Baby Health Products

As experienced pharmaceutical packaging printers in South Africa, we at Pyrotec PackMedia understand that your packaging must reflect the care that goes into every formulation.

Our Premium Custom Labels are ideal for:

• Vitamin bottle labels
• Health product labels
• Complementary medicine labels
• Homoeopathic product labels
• Baby health product labels

You’ll benefit from:

• High-impact, consistent branding across a full range of products
• Fine text and barcodes being produced clearly for regulatory readability
• Flexible formats

For glass bottles and jars, our Wet Glue Label Printing provides a reliable, cost-effective solution widely used in traditional homeopathic and herbal categories, as well as in Category D medicine labels.

Multipage Labels, Merchandising & Smart Packaging

Many brands also need packaging that works harder on the shelf. Our Promotional Leaflet Labels and Butterfly Labels turn every pack into a mini marketing platform, ideal for promoting loyalty programmes, educational content, or seasonal offers for energy, joint support, and stress relief supplements.

To gain a digital edge, our NFC Smart Labels enable authentication, tamper-evidence cues, and interactive experiences. A simple tap on a smartphone can open digital leaflets, how-to videos, or registration pages; a powerful differentiator for premium supplement packaging in South Africa and high-value vitamin bottle labels.

Expert Support, Prepress & Flexible Quantities

Beyond printed product labels, Pyrotec PackMedia offers:

• An in-house prepress team to guide artwork setup and SAHPRA-compliant label layouts
• Technical support for health supplement labelling requirements and complex multipage constructions
• Fast turnaround times and no minimum order quantities on many applications, supporting both emerging and established brands
