Botanic Biosciences Transdermal Patches
Introduction to Transdermal Delivery in Plant-Based Wellness
At Botanic Biosciences, we specialize in innovative transdermal patch manufacturing tailored for the plant-based wellness industry. Transdermal patches offer a sophisticated delivery method for botanicals and vitamins, allowing active ingredients to be absorbed directly through the skin. This approach provides a convenient, non-invasive option for B2B clients seeking to enhance their wholesale product lines with high-quality supplements. Our patches are designed to support daily wellness routines, delivering consistent doses of plant-derived compounds in formats that align with modern consumer preferences for discreet and easy-to-use products.
Transdermal technology has evolved significantly, drawing from scientific advancements in skin permeation and adhesive formulations. These patches typically consist of multiple layers, including an impermeable backing, a drug reservoir or matrix, a rate-controlling membrane, and an adhesive layer that adheres securely to the skin. By bypassing the digestive system, transdermal delivery ensures efficient absorption of active ingredients, making it ideal for plant-based wellness applications. Our expertise in this area positions us as a trusted partner for businesses looking to expand into tinctures, liquids, powders, capsules, tablets, topicals, beverages, edibles, bakeables, and smokeables, with transdermal patches adding a versatile category to your portfolio.
We focus on plant-based ingredients, sourcing from natural botanicals to create formulations that resonate with health-conscious markets. Whether you are a retailer, distributor, or brand owner, our transdermal patches can elevate your offerings, providing differentiated products that stand out in the competitive wellness sector. With a commitment to quality and innovation, Botanic Biosciences ensures every patch meets rigorous standards for efficacy and safety, helping you build customer loyalty through reliable, science-backed solutions.
Understanding Transdermal Patch Technology
Transdermal patches function by compounding Botanicals or vitamins, often in oil or powder form, into specialized adhesives. This creates a tape-like material that we precisely die-cut into individual patches for accurate dosing. Users generally experience the onset of effects within the first 20 minutes of application, thanks to the skin’s natural permeability enhanced by our formulations.
Key advantages include the use of flexible, breathable, and removable adhesives made from skin-friendly medical-grade materials. We offer customization in shapes, sizes, and configurations, such as multiple patches on a single release liner, along with private labeling, poly bags, foil pouching, or boxed packaging. Our manufacturing leverages advanced die-cutting technologies for both simple and intricate designs, slitting capabilities, and controlled environments like ISO 8 Clean Rooms when required.
Materials in our patches feature hot melt rubber or acrylic-based adhesive systems, paired with backings such as polyurethane, polyester, polyethylene, thin foams, woven, or non-woven fabrics. Release liners are available in printer paper or film options. This versatility allows us to mix and match adhesives with various backings, incorporate custom printing of logos and branding, and tailor formulations to specific wellness needs. For plant-based wellness, we emphasize adhesives infused with varying levels of botanicals, ensuring compatibility with your product vision.
Our Advanced Manufacturing Capabilities
Botanic Biosciences employs a comprehensive manufacturing process that integrates cutting-edge technology with scientific precision. We develop patches in doses ranging from 10 MG to 60 MG, ensuring scalability from prototype to full production. Our facilities support sample rolls and die-cuts for pre-production testing, enabling clients to refine designs without significant costs or delays.
In our process, ingredients are expertly mixed into medical-grade biocompatible acrylic adhesives and coated onto selected face stocks, such as 3 mil PE translucent film, 5 mil white PE film, or 1/32 inch white PE foam. Die-cutting accommodates custom shapes, producing 4 or 6 patches per sheet on extended liners. With 5-color processing, we enable vibrant print patterns on patches and liners, while pack-out solutions include pouches or boxes into master cartons, offering a one-stop shop for your B2B needs.
For development timelines, we typically complete concept-to-pilot runs in about 3 weeks, with full production following in another 3 weeks post-approval, often wrapping up in under 8 weeks. This efficiency is crucial for wholesale clients aiming to launch products swiftly in the dynamic plant-based wellness market. Our capabilities extend to both passive and active systems, drawing from quality-by-design principles to minimize residual ingredients and optimize delivery.
