pieces
or even units. In my opinion items is something different, more "articoli".

number of packs
I think in this case the text may be referring to the fact that by virtue of process manufacturing a "batch of ingredients" has now been distributed into countable items.
Note, I would stay away from using "units" because of the implications with "International Units" a standard way to measure the quantity of formula in the pharmaceutical product.
Also, I would not mention "size" as in process manufacturing, batch size is the volume/weight of the formula prior to packaging

Qty/Quantity
Just another idea - where I've seen 'No. pezzi' on Italian packaging (tablets, etc.) I would have translated it as "Qty" - e.g. "Qty. 20" in English.
