Project Brief
Understanding what you need
We start with your product, specifications, volumes, packaging requirements and commercial objectives to establish the right manufacturing route.
Development & Preparation
Getting the product production-ready
Where required, our teams can support formulation, flavour development, specifications and other pre-production requirements before manufacture begins.
Commercial Production
Controlled UK manufacturing
Once approved, your product moves into manufacture within our UK facilities, with processes designed around consistency, quality and repeatability.
Finished Goods
Ready for the next stage
From production through to finished goods, we help bring the different elements of your project together so your product is ready for onward distribution and sale.
From approved specification to commercial production
Manufacturing is where a product specification has to become a repeatable reality. OLC combines UK production facilities with in-house expertise to manufacture next-generation nicotine products with consistency, control and commercial scalability.
Our vertically integrated approach brings product development and manufacturing closer together, helping create a more connected route from an approved product to ongoing production.
Controlled Production ✔
Manufacturing processes built around approved product specifications and repeatable output.
Batch Traceability ✔
Production records support traceability across commercial manufacturing.
UK Manufacturing ✔
Next-generation nicotine products manufactured within OLC's UK operations.
One manufacturing partner. Multiple product categories.
Our manufacturing capabilities span key next-generation nicotine categories, giving brands the flexibility to develop individual products or build a broader portfolio with one UK manufacturing partner.

Quality is built into the manufacturing process, not checked only at the end. From controlled production environments to documented processes and batch traceability, our approach is designed to support consistent, commercially ready products.
Controlled UK Manufacturing
Production takes place within our UK facilities using defined manufacturing processes designed to maintain consistency from batch to batch. Approved specifications provide the reference point throughout production, helping ensure the finished product reflects what was agreed during development.
Quality Checks Throughout Production
Quality considerations continue throughout the manufacturing process. Defined checks and controls help identify variation, maintain product consistency and provide greater confidence as production moves from raw materials through to finished goods.
Traceability From Production to Finished Product
Clear batch records provide visibility across commercial manufacture, helping connect ingredients, production activity and finished goods. This documented approach supports accountability and makes it easier to trace individual production batches when required.
Manufacturing With Regulatory Requirements in Mind
For regulated nicotine products, manufacturing and compliance cannot operate separately. Our production expertise works alongside our regulatory knowledge to help ensure relevant product requirements, documentation and specifications remain part of the manufacturing process.
Built for Commercial Production
Moving from an approved product to ongoing manufacture requires more than production capacity. It requires a manufacturing partner that can maintain specifications, coordinate changing requirements and provide dependable support as your commercial needs develop.
Flexible Production
Whether you are preparing an initial commercial run or managing ongoing production requirements, we can work with different project needs while maintaining the agreed product specification.
Consistent Supply
Defined processes, documented specifications and controlled manufacture help provide continuity between production runs, giving you greater confidence as products move into ongoing commercial supply.
Production Planning
We work with you to understand production requirements and coordinate manufacture around your product specifications, volumes and wider commercial needs.
Support as You Grow
Requirements can change as products, ranges and markets develop. Our team can continue supporting your project beyond its first production run, providing manufacturing expertise as your commercial needs evolve.
