How Vella guarantees quality,
before your goods leave China.
We replace vague promises with published physical tests, contractual guarantees, and laboratory inspection reports on every single production run.
4-Gate AQL Inspection & -0.08 MPa Vacuum Leak Test
Every batch undergoes IQC on raw resins, IPQC on the production line, FQC against the signed golden sample, and OQC to AQL ISO 2859-1 (Critical: 0, Major: 1.0, Minor: 2.5). Containers undergo 15-minute negative pressure chamber testing to guarantee zero seal leakage.
48°C / 30-Day Thermal Formula Compatibility Battery
Active ingredients (retinoids, vitamin C, AHA/BHA, high ethanol >30%) chemically react with incompatible plastics. We run accelerated thermal stability testing using your exact production bulk before tooling or mass decoration is greenlit.
100% Brand Mould Ownership & 30/40/30 Payments
Traditional suppliers hold custom tooling hostage. With Vella, your tooling agreement is legally binding in English and Chinese. You hold 100% intellectual property and title to the steel cavity with zero transfer restrictions.
Everything your brand needs,
in one place.
From airless serum bottles to glass flacons, luxury paper cartons to sheet-mask pouches and eco-refillable systems — Vella covers the complete beauty packaging spectrum. Skincare, colour cosmetics, glass, paper, flexible, eco and beyond.
From brief to doorstep,
in three steps.
Tell us what you're packaging — format, target look, quantity and timeline. We identify the right material and factory combination for you within 24 hours.
Vella taps our vetted factory network, coordinates samples from 1–3 shortlisted suppliers and manages feedback rounds until you're happy with the physical result.
Once you greenlight the sample, we manage production, inline QC and freight consolidation. Your packaging arrives ready to fill — one shipment, one invoice.
One partner for your whole packaging system.
Vella is a beauty packaging solutions provider, not a factory: we specify, source, sample, tool, quality-control and ship complete packaging systems from vetted partner factories operating to ISO 22716 / GMP. Six modules — Spec, Source, Sample, Mould, QC, Ship — applied by category, with the numbers published.
All packaging solutions → Build your spec in 2 minutes →Built for brands at every stage.
From first-time founders placing 500-unit trial orders to established retailers needing coordinated multi-SKU ranges — if you're building a beauty brand, Vella is built for you.
What a Vella brief
looks like in practice.
Every project starts with a conversation and ends with packaging on shelves. Three recent examples — anonymised, but real.
UK indie skincare launch
Four-SKU launch — airless serum, dropper oil, cream jar, squeeze cleanser — all needing a cohesive premium aesthetic. Brief to sample delivery: 11 weeks. Two specialist factories, one consolidated shipment, one invoice.
US DTC eco range pivot
Established brand transitioning a 6-SKU line to GRS-certified PCR packaging for the US market. Drop-in compatibility with existing fill lines required. All formats matched; GRS certificates and QC reports provided in full.
Australian retailer consolidation
Private label range managed across 5 Chinese suppliers — inconsistent QC, unpredictable lead times. Consolidated to Vella: one contact, one shipment per season, 35% reduction in total logistics cost.
Why brands choose Vella
over sourcing direct.
Going direct to Alibaba sounds cheaper until you're managing five factories, chasing five shipments and resolving quality disputes in Mandarin. Vella exists to solve exactly that — specialist factories matched to each format, with one relationship managing everything.
Best-fit factory routing
The best airless bottle factory is rarely the best lip packaging factory. We route each format to the specialist — not the one that happens to be available.
One shipment, one invoice
Multi-factory orders arrive consolidated in a single shipment. Less freight cost, less customs paperwork, no coordination overhead.
QC & compliance built in
All partner factories operate to ISO 22716 / GMP standard. QC inspection is included in every production run — not a paid add-on.
20-year factory relationships
Our group has worked with the same partner factories for 5–15 years. That depth means priority scheduling, honest lead times, and real escalation power when things go wrong.
Built to the standards your market demands.
We route every brief to partner factories that operate to internationally recognised cosmetic-packaging standards — and we verify the documentation ourselves before production is approved.
Vella is a sourcing & solutions company working with vetted partner factories, not a single manufacturing plant. The standards above are held and operated by our partner factories; Vella's role is to match each brief to a compliant factory and verify the supporting documentation before production.
