OEM / PRIVATE LABEL

Choose how much you want to customize.

Not every private-label project needs the same amount of development. Yipods separates OEM and customization into clear levels—from changing only the brand and packaging to developing a completely new pod structure, formula and mold.
Level 1Brand + Packaging
Level 2Color + Fragrance + Packaging
Level 3Formula + Sensory + Packaging
Level 4Shape + Structure + Formula + Mold
FOUR CUSTOMIZATION LEVELS

From fast private label to full product development.

The deeper the customization, the more development, validation and manufacturing work is required. Choose the level that matches your commercial goal.

Private Label

Brand + Packaging Only
Use an existing proven product without changing formula, color, fragrance, pod shape or chamber structure.

Sensory Customization

Color + Fragrance + Packaging
Keep the proven core formula and product structure, while adjusting the product's look, scent and brand presentation.

Functional Customization

Formula + Color + Fragrance + Packaging
Modify product performance for specific market needs while maintaining an established manufacturing format where possible.

Full Product Development

Shape + Chamber + Formula + Mold + Packaging
Create a product that does not already exist using custom geometry, chamber design, powder-liquid structures and dedicated tooling.

This makes project scope clear before development begins and helps match cost, lead time and risk to the real business need.

SERVICES BY CUSTOMIZATION LEVEL

Different levels receive different development support.

The service scope grows with product complexity. We avoid charging customers for development work they do not need.

Private Label Launch Service

For customers who want the fastest path to market using an existing proven product.

• Brand and product naming
• Label / pouch / carton / tub artwork support
• Pack count and retail format selection
• Language and market packaging adaptation
• Commercial manufacturing coordination

Brand Sensory Customization

For customers who want a recognizable brand identity without rebuilding product performance.

• Fragrance selection and adjustment
• Color selection and visual appearance
• Brand-specific packaging design
• Basic compatibility confirmation
• Commercial production transfer

Performance & Formula Customization

For customers who need products adapted to local cleaning habits, claims or performance targets.

• Formula modification
• Cleaning performance optimization
• Enzyme, polymer, builder or bleaching-system adjustment
• Color and fragrance customization
• PVA compatibility and stability validation
• Pilot confirmation before scale-up

Full Product Development

For products that require a new structure, dedicated tooling or a new manufacturing approach.

• Custom formula architecture
• Single / multi-chamber product structure
• Powder + liquid combinations
• Custom shape and chamber ratios
• Custom mold development
• PVA / forming / sealing process development
• Prototype, pilot and manufacturing scale-up
MANUFACTURING ROUTE

The customization level also changes how we manufacture.

Standard products benefit from established high-volume production. Complex products benefit from closer technical control before scale-up.

Level 1–2 · Established Manufacturing

Private-label and sensory-customized products can move directly into qualified commercial manufacturing where efficiency, repeatability and volume are the priority.

Level 3–4 · Development Before Scale

Formula and architecture customization normally passes through development, validation and pilot production before transferring into larger manufacturing capacity.
PROJECT PROCESS

A clear scope makes customization faster.

We first identify the level of change required, then only add the technical work necessary for that level.

Choose Level

Define how much of the existing product should change.

Set Target

Market, price, claims, dosage, fragrance and packaging requirements.

Develop

Only when formula, structure or tooling changes are required.

Validate

Compatibility, stability, performance and manufacturing repeatability.

Manufacture

Transfer the approved product into the right production route.
