How Are Natural Empty Capsules Produced?

The global empty capsules market is growing rapidly due to the nutraceutical industry growth. Nutraceuticals are supplements used to help people maintain a healthy lifestyle by complementing the diet. They are consumed by people from all age groups and demographics across the globe.

Empty hard gelatin capsules are a traditional pharmaceutical dosage form and serve as a major excipient in product development and manufacturing. Variability within and between different capsule batches is an important factor affecting the performance of drug formulations in these devices.

Empty gelatin capsules are a flexible option that work with a wide variety of formulations and applications. They are available in a variety of sizes and shapes and can be made to meet specific pharmacopoeial requirements like sterility, appearance, and mechanical properties. They can be produced in both Kosher and Halal gelatin to accommodate a wider range of religious and dietary preferences. Gelatin capsules are also one of the most popular options for vegetarians as they don’t contain animal-derived ingredients.
