A platform approach to functional pouches
Sonvi Bio, the functional oral pouch manufacturing division of Hunan Jianghui Health Technology, builds nicotine-free pouch products for brand partners worldwide. This note sets out the four functional platforms around which our OEM and ODM service is organized. The platform model matters because it lets brands enter a validated category quickly while retaining full control of dose, flavor, packaging and claims. Sonvi does not manufacture nicotine or tobacco products; everything produced in the Hunan facility is functional food and dietary supplement product.
Energy: controlled caffeine, smoothed release
The Energy platform is built for alertness without the abrupt spike of an energy drink. Caffeine is selectable from 80 mg to 150 mg per pouch, covering mainstream to strong intensity, and is paired with L-theanine to support a steadier release across roughly 60 to 90 minutes of wear. Target users include shift workers, students, long-haul drivers and gym users who want a discreet alternative to drinks. The platform's dose ladder is deliberately capped at 150 mg rather than chasing the 200 mg end of the market, reflecting a design bias toward repeat daily use and transparent labeling.
Focus: cognitive support with or without caffeine
The Focus platform combines L-theanine, L-tyrosine and Alpha-GPC around attention and working-memory occasions such as deep work, study and creative production. It can be produced with a moderate caffeine dose or entirely caffeine-free, which gives brands a single shelf family spanning morning and afternoon use without forcing caffeine-sensitive consumers out of the range. Flavor systems here trend toward clean mint, citrus and light botanical profiles rather than confectionery codes, matching the professional positioning of the target audience.
Nootropic: a caffeine-free botanical platform
The Nootropic platform is caffeine-free by design and built on Bacopa monnieri, lion's mane, Panax ginseng and rhodiola, completed with B vitamins. It addresses consumers who actively avoid stimulants, people using pouches in the evening, and brands that want a long-term cognitive-care positioning rather than an immediate energy promise. Because some adaptogens build effect over repeated use, this platform is formulated with doses traceable to published literature, and marketing guidance to partners keeps claims inside structure-function boundaries.
Sports: electrolytes for endurance settings
The Sports platform delivers sodium, potassium and magnesium electrolytes with taurine and beta-alanine in a zero-sugar base. The pouch format is particularly useful in running, cycling, court sports and outdoor work where carrying liquid is inconvenient and a discreet electrolyte top-up is the use occasion. Like the Nootropic line, Sports is caffeine-free, positioning it for hydration and exercise support rather than stimulation.
Formulation breadth and manufacturing capacity
Behind the four platforms sits a library of more than 1,000 proven formulations and over 5,000 flavor options, with pouch fill weight adjustable from 0.3 g to 1.2 g in mini or Swedish-style plant-fiber sachets. Production runs across four filling lines with a nameplate capacity of five million packs per month, staffed by more than 500 employees. The commercial entry point is 5,000 cans per flavor, custom samples are delivered within five working days of a confirmed brief, and mass production typically runs three to five weeks after sample and artwork sign-off.
Quality and documentation infrastructure
The Hunan facility operates under cGMP principles aligned with the 21 CFR Part 111 dietary supplement framework and HACCP controls, in an ISO Class 8, or 100,000-class, clean workshop, under food production license SC13043011210578. Every partner batch is supported by COA, MSDS, finished-product specification sheets, production flow records and shipping documentation. This documentation set is designed for the realities of global retail listing, customs review and marketplace compliance, not merely for factory filing.
Who we work with
The platform library and quality system currently support more than 300 brand partners in over 40 countries, from first-time founders launching a two-SKU range to established supplement houses adding a pouch format. The engagement model is deliberately advisory on the decisions that cause category failures: dose restraint, label transparency, claim boundaries and file completeness. Our position is that helping a brand get formulation, dose, claims and documentation right the first time is what turns a single PO into a multi-year range.
How engagement starts
A typical project begins with a target-market and classification review, moves to platform and dose selection, then flavor sampling within five working days, and proceeds to artwork compliance review before mass production. Brands can bring a fully developed formulation for ODM execution or start from a platform and customize. The growing global interest in discreet oral delivery makes the format opportunity clear; our role is to make sure partners enter it with defensible products rather than fast ones.
