KWK (Kunststoffwerk Kremsmünster), part of the Guala Closures Group, will attend Vitafoods Europe 2026 (May 5-7, Fira Barcelona Gran Via - Stand 5J32), presenting its integrated portfolio of primary packaging solutions for the nutraceutical industry, alongside Guala Closures’ advanced aluminum technologies and anti-counterfeiting expertise.
The nutraceutical market is entering a new phase of expansion, driven by rising demand for preventive health solutions and proactive wellbeing, with oral liquid formats among the fastest growing and most innovative segments reshaping expectations around convenience, efficacy and premium experience. Industry estimates suggest the sector could nearly double by 2030 to USD 327 billion, with liquid supplements projected to grow at around 8.6% annually, outpacing the broader category.
Within this evolving scenario, packaging plays a central role in ensuring product protection, stability, and dosing accuracy, while also defining brand identity and consumer experience.
In this context, KWK will showcase a comprehensive portfolio of primary packaging solutions, including child-resistant (CRC) and tamper-evident (TE) plasticclosures, aluminum screwcaps (GPI) and roll-on closures (ROPP), and precision dosing devices, engineered to ensure safety, functionality and ease of use across a wide range of liquid applications.
These solutions also enable high levels of customization, supporting brand differentiation and premium positioning in a rapidly evolving market.
“In oral liquid nutraceuticals, packaging is no longer just functional, it is a critical interface between product performance and consumer perception,” commented Nicola Carandente, Pharmaceutical Division Director at Guala Closures. “Combining high-barrier aluminum, precision dosing and customizable closure systems allows us to meet both technical requirements and the growing demand for premium, differentiated solutions in a fast-evolving market.”
Through its participation at Vitafoods 2026, KWK and Guala Closures reaffirm their commitment to supporting the industry with innovative, sustainable and high-performance packaging solutions, designed to meet the needs of the nutraceutical industry.
