In 2025, nasal strips are no longer just a quiet solution to snoring. They’ve become one of the most unexpected, high-potential products in the health and wellness market. From sleep aids to sports recovery routines, nasal strips are making their way into consumer lifestyles—and new brands are taking notice.
If you’re in the business of wellness, performance, or sleep-related products, here’s why nasal strips may be your next big opportunity.
Nasal Strips: From OTC to Brandable Wellness Essentials
Historically, nasal strips were marketed as over-the-counter tools to reduce snoring and nasal congestion. But as consumer habits shift toward non-invasive, drug-free wellness, nasal strips have become more than just a medical solution—they are evolving into lifestyle products.
These strips now serve dual roles:
As functional breathing tools for athletes, travelers, and allergy sufferers
As brandable accessories that can be customized and bundled with other wellness products
In short: nasal strips are small, simple, and increasingly strategic.
Market Data Backs the Momentum
Analysts project the global nasal strips market will grow to over USD 2.3 billion by 2031, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7% to 11%. This is being driven by:
Rising demand for sleep quality products
An explosion in athletic and performance breathing use cases
Increased interest in home wellness and non-pharmaceutical solutions
Low entry barriers for private label and DTC models
In parallel, the global sleep aid market—where nasal strips are gaining traction—has already surpassed USD 70 billion in 2025.
Dream Performance Enters the Market
In May 2025, Dream Performance, a U.S.-based brand known for recovery supplements and training gear, announced a new product line of athlete-grade nasal strips. These are designed not for sleep, but for oxygen optimization during workouts e post-exercise recovery.
With packaging tailored for fitness retailers and direct-to-consumer delivery, the brand also plans a monthly subscription model—turning a low-cost consumable into a recurring business.
This move illustrates how nasal strips are being repositioned: from cheap OTC add-ons to recurring wellness rituals.
Why the Product Fits the New Brand Playbook
Nasal strips are especially attractive to new brands for four reasons:
1. Low Manufacturing Risk, High Branding Potential
Nasal strips are:
Lightweight
Non-electronic
Easy to store and ship
Quick to customize (color, packaging, logo)
This makes them ideal for private label brands or companies looking to enter the wellness market without high upfront costs.
2. Natural Fit for Sleep, Sport, and Stress Relief Kits
They pair perfectly with:
Mouth tape, eye masks, essential oils in sleep bundles
Performance gear, like resistance bands and hydration packs
Travel kits, especially for flights or long commutes
These combinations are more than practical—they are also brand builders. You can find curated inspiration in:
Each kit strategy strengthens your product ecosystem and increases both user retention and average order value.
3. High Repurchase Rates
Unlike one-time gear, nasal strips are consumables. Customers use them daily or weekly, leading to:
High lifetime value
Subscription model potential
Add-to-cart value in DTC stores
This is particularly appealing for Amazon sellers, Shopify brands, and retail startups.
4. Science-Supported, Yet Emotionally Simple
While backed by studies showing improved airflow, reduced snoring, and better nasal breathing, nasal strips also appeal emotionally.
They represent:
A small, low-effort daily win
Control over one’s breathing and recovery
An affordable step toward better sleep or fitness
Expanding Use Cases: Where the Opportunity Lies
| Use Case | Example Product Pairings |

| Sleep Hygiene | Nasal strips that reduce snoring, blackout mask, lavender balm |
| Fitness Prep | Creatine, nose dilator, electrolyte powder |
| Travel Comfort | Neck pillow, noise-canceling earbuds, nasal strips |
| Focus Tools | Blue light blockers, breath guides, nasal strips |
By positioning nasal strips within ecosystems, brands tap into higher emotional and commercial value.
What It Means for B2B Buyers and Product Developers
If you’re sourcing or building sleep, fitness, or lifestyle products, nasal strips offer:
✅ Ease of entry – fast turnaround for OEM/ODM
✅ Branding flexibility – custom shapes, adhesive grades, or colors
✅ Bundling power – ideal for kits, cross-sells, and onboarding packages
✅ Regulatory clarity – with FDA, CE, or ISO standards available from top suppliers
Whether you’re building a premium DTC brand or scaling a functional product line, nasal strips are a low-risk, high-opportunity add-on.
Conclusione
New brands like Dream Performance are betting on nasal strips in 2025 because they’re no longer a sleepy pharmacy item. They are versatile, brandable, and backed by science—perfectly positioned at the intersection of health, lifestyle, and recurring commerce.
As BBC Future recently highlighted, nasal breathing is becoming the foundation of smart health habits. That makes nasal strips one of the most scalable tools in your next product lineup.
