Levels® Launches Strawberry and Unflavored Whey Protein Powders at Select Walmart Stores Nationwide

Published

By

The minimal-ingredient whey protein powders are now available in 1.48 lb canisters at select Walmart locations nationwide, along with single-serve sachets in Vanilla Bean and Double Chocolate.

JUPITER, Fla., Aug. 15, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Today, Levels announced the launch of 1.48 lb canisters of Strawberry and Unflavored Whey Protein Powders, along with single-serve offerings in two of its most popular whey protein flavors, Vanilla Bean and Double Chocolate.

Levels® Launches Strawberry and Unflavored Whey Protein Powders at Select Walmart Stores Nationwide

These four products join Vanilla Bean and Double Chocolate 1.48 lb canisters already at Walmart stores across the U.S. The expanded flavor offerings broaden Walmart shoppers’ access to Levels’ whey protein, giving consumers new flavor and size options.

The Unflavored Whey Protein Powder boasts 25g of protein and 5.6g of BCAAs per scoop, with only two ingredients total. The Strawberry Whey Protein Powder contains 24g of protein and 5.4g of BCAAs per scoop, with only eight ingredients.

Both products hold the Clean Label Project® Purity Award. The rigorous testing screens for over 400 potential contaminants, including heavy metals, pesticides, and plasticizers, making it one of the most demanding certifications in the industry and one that’s held by less than 30% of brands in the space.

“Consumers are demanding better protein — products made with real ingredients they can actually trust,” said Blake Niemann, Founder & CEO of Levels. “Launching four flavors and sizes that are new to Walmart makes it easier than ever for people to enjoy high-quality whey protein made with minimal ingredients, transparent sourcing, and nothing artificial.”

“Walmart is a best-in-class retail partner for Levels, and we’re excited to bring new flavors and sizes to Walmart shoppers across the country. This continued expansion increases Levels’ Walmart distribution by nearly 120%, reinforcing the brand’s strong and growing presence at retail.”

In an industry beset by rising concerns about product safety and ingredient sourcing, Levels stands out with its radically simple approach and minimal 6–8 ingredient formulas. Levels sources grass-fed, hormone-free dairy to make its whey protein concentrate, the least-processed form of whey.

In addition to Walmart, Levels can be found at major retailers including Sam’s Club, Costco, Target, Kroger, Meijer, Wegmans, H-E-B, and Amazon. Levels products are also available online at levelsprotein.com and through leading retail websites.

About Levels
Founded by Blake Niemann, Levels was built on a simple belief: protein powder shouldn’t need a chemistry degree to understand. The brand builds its whey powders around high protein content, minimal ingredients, and flavors that are ridiculously good tasting — a formula that has driven distribution to a projected 10,000 retail locations and 30,000 points of distribution in 2026.

About Walmart
Bentonville, Arkansas-based Walmart Inc. (NYSE: WMT) serves customers at more than 10,500 stores and clubs in 19 countries, as well as at Walmart.com, with the purpose of saving people money so they can live better. Since 1962, Walmart has been committed to creating opportunities and bringing value to customers, associates, and communities around the world. Additional company information can be found by visiting the corporate website and press center.

Creality Launches SPARKX i7 Nano: Bringing Compact Multi-Color Printing to $299

Published

on

By

HOUSTON, Aug. 15, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Creality, a global leader in the 3D printing industry, today announced the availability of the SPARKX i7 Nano, the latest addition to its i7 series. This desktop 3D printer saves space while delivering premium print quality across up to four colors. With a minimalist design that fits easily on a desk, the i7 Nano makes multi-color 3D printing more compact, affordable, and accessible.

Following the January debut of the i7 Color Combo, the i7 Nano is also built for smarter, more effortless 3D printing. It integrates AI-powered capabilities that simplify both creation and printing, including CubeMe for automatically turning 2D portraits into multi-color 3D models. A built-in 720p AI camera monitors prints for common failures such as spaghetti and air printing, while vibration compensation and dynamic pressure adjustment help maintain consistent print quality.

Beyond these shared features, the i7 Nano comes with an integrated spool holder and optimized filament layout, taking up less desktop space and making it easier to fit into compact workspaces. The spool holder mounts directly onto the printer body with a convenient snap-on design, eliminating the need for an external CFS Lite. This compact solution keeps the printer’s footprint small while maintaining a clean appearance without compromising printing performance.

Paired with the new CFS nano Kit, a small unit mounted on top of the printer, the i7 Nano enables vibrant multi-color printing with automatic filament switching for up to four colors. The CFS nano features a dual-motor system, with one motor controlling filament channel switching and the other handling filament feeding and retraction. This ensures smooth and efficient color changes while keeping the overall setup streamlined. The CFS nano also allows quick installation without complex disassembly or modifications and is compatible with existing i7 units.

The i7 Nano features a build volume of 260 × 260 × 255 mm and a maximum printing speed of up to 500 mm/s. It supports a hardened steel nozzle with a maximum temperature of 300°C and multiple nozzle diameters, including 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, and 0.8 mm. It is also equipped with automatic bed leveling, RFID filament reading and automatic filament refill to deliver an easy-to-use and reliable printing experience for beginners.

The SPARKX i7 Nano with CFS nano Kit will be available starting from August 15 for $299 in the U.S. at the Creality US Store.
