| 1 | Raw Material Receiving & Inspection | Raw materials such as pectin or gelatin, sweeteners, active ingredients, flavors, colors, acids, oils, and packaging materials are received and checked before production. Each material is reviewed according to the approved formula and supplier documents. | Ingredient identity, batch records, COA review, appearance, storage condition, and traceability. |
| 2 | Cooking / Boiling | The gummy base is cooked under controlled temperature and timing. Sweeteners, gelling agents, water, acids, and other base ingredients are blended to create the right viscosity and texture before active ingredients are added. | Temperature control, pH balance, viscosity, solid content, and formula consistency. |
| 3 | Depositing & Molding | The warm gummy mass is deposited into selected molds, such as bears, drops, domes, hearts, cubes, or other available shapes. Dosage and fill volume are controlled to keep each gummy consistent. | Gummy weight, shape accuracy, active dosage uniformity, and visual consistency. |
| 4 | Demolding & Conveying | Once the gummies have cooled and set, they are carefully removed from the molds and transferred to the next production stage. Gentle conveying helps protect the shape and reduce deformation. | Complete demolding, low breakage rate, clean surface, and stable gummy structure. |
| 5 | Coating & Pre-Drying | Gummies may be lightly coated with oil, wax, sugar, acid powder, or other surface treatments depending on the formula and market needs. Coating helps reduce stickiness, improve mouthfeel, enhance shine, and support packaging stability. For more details, read our gummy coating guide. | Anti-sticking performance, coating uniformity, surface gloss, mouthfeel, and climate suitability. |
| 6 | Drying | Gummies are placed in a controlled drying environment to reduce moisture and improve shelf stability. Drying time depends on the gummy base, active ingredients, size, formula type, and target texture. | Moisture level, water activity, texture, stickiness, and shelf-life stability. |
| 7 | Finishing & Polishing | After drying, gummies go through final surface finishing. This may include polishing, de-dusting, sorting, or removing gummies with obvious defects before packaging. | Appearance, color consistency, surface smoothness, odor, texture, and defect control. |
| 8 | Filling, Packaging & Labeling | Finished gummies are weighed and filled into bottles, jars, pouches, bulk bags, or other packaging formats. Labels, induction seals, desiccants, shrink bands, and outer cartons can be applied according to the private label project requirements. | Fill count, net weight, sealing, label alignment, packaging cleanliness, and finished product presentation. |
| 9 | Shipping & Fulfillment | Finished goods are packed for international delivery. We support export documentation, carton labeling, palletizing, air shipping, sea shipping, and door-to-door logistics depending on the order size and destination market. | Carton protection, shipping marks, export documents, customs clearance support, and delivery stability. |
