Capsules, softgels & tablets
What capsule sizes and materials are available?
We stock empty hard capsules in the standard sizes, from 000 down to 4, in both gelatin and HPMC (vegetarian) shells. Softgels and tablets are made to your specification, so the size follows the fill and the dose. Tell us the formula and the target dose and we will confirm the sizes that suit it.
Can capsule colours and finishes be customised?
Yes. Capsules are available in a wide range of standard colours, transparent or opaque, and can be matched to a Pantone reference for your brand. Printing, banding and other finishes are possible as well. Custom colours have their own minimum quantities and lead times, which we confirm with the quotation.
When should I choose capsules, softgels or tablets?
It depends on the formula. Capsules suit powders, granules and mixed ingredients and need no binders. Softgels suit oils, liquids and lipid-based ingredients and seal the contents from air. Tablets suit high doses, precise release and low unit cost at scale. If you are not sure, send us the formula and we will advise on the format and the production it calls for.
Are vegetarian and vegan capsule options available?
Yes. HPMC capsules are plant-based and suitable for vegetarian and vegan products, and pullulan capsules are available on request. For softgels we can offer vegetarian shells as an alternative to gelatin. Ask for the specification sheet of the shell you have in mind.
Can I request capsule samples before ordering?
Yes, we provide samples upon request so clients can evaluate the quality before committing to a bulk purchase.
Raw materials & excipients
Can you help find alternatives to an existing ingredient?
Yes. If an ingredient is unavailable, too expensive or no longer compliant, we look for an equivalent with the same function in the formula and send you its specification and a sample so you can test it in your process before switching.
Can you provide certificates of analysis?
Yes. Every batch of raw material and excipient we supply comes with its certificate of analysis, and we can provide safety data sheets, allergen statements and origin documentation on request.
What is the difference between active ingredients and excipients?
Active ingredients are the components that give the product its effect, such as a vitamin, a mineral or a botanical extract. Excipients are the other ingredients that make the product possible: fillers, binders, flow agents, coatings and capsule shells. A good formula needs both, and we supply both.
Can you source specific or uncommon ingredients?
Yes. Beyond our standard range we source specific ingredients, grades and origins through our supplier network. Send us the specification you need and we will tell you what we can supply, in what quantity and with what lead time.
What minimum order quantities apply to ingredients?
Yes, our MOQ depends on the product. For empty capsules, our MOQ is only 1 box. For raw materials, the MOQ is one drum (25kg). For other products, the MOQ may vary. Please contact us for specific requirements.
Manufacturing equipment
What equipment is needed to manufacture supplements?
A basic line for capsules needs a mixer, a capsule filling machine, a polisher and a counting or bottling machine, and for tablets a tablet press in place of the filler. Around that come weighing, granulation, coating, blister or bottle packaging and labelling, depending on the product and the volume. We help you work out which stages your product actually needs.
Can you help build a complete supplement production line?
Yes. We supply single machines and complete lines, from powder handling to packaging, and plan the line around your product, your volume and your floor space. Ask for the equipment catalogue on the Pharma equipment page, or send us your requirements.
Is equipment installation and training available?
Yes. Installation, commissioning and operator training are arranged with every line and can be included with single machines. We also supply the documentation your quality system needs.
What should I consider before automating production?
Volume, product range and space. Automation pays off when the same product runs in quantity; a wide range of small batches often calls for flexible, semi-automatic machines instead. Consider the changeover time between products, the operators you have, and where the line will grow next, and we will plan the line around those answers.
Do you provide maintenance and technical support?
Yes. We provide spare parts, maintenance and remote and on-site technical support for the equipment we supply, with service agreements for lines that run continuously.
Supply, delivery and partnership
Are our materials available globally?
Yes, our materials are available for global distribution. We supply our empty capsules, raw materials, excipients, and softgels all over the world. Our clients are located in Europe, the USA, the Middle East, and South America. We have a well-established supply chain and logistics network that allows us to deliver worldwide.
What quality control measures do we have in place?
We implement strict quality control measures, including third-party testing, batch tracking, and compliance with international standards (such as GMP, ISO, and HACCP). Each batch undergoes rigorous testing for purity, potency, and safety.
How do we handle shipping and customs documentation?
We manage all aspects of shipping and customs documentation, ensuring smooth and efficient deliveries. We provide necessary paperwork such as invoices, certificates of analysis (CoA), MSDS, and customs declarations as required by different countries. Additionally, for certain sensitive supplies, we arrange refrigerated transport to maintain quality and ensure product stability during transit.
Are our raw materials sustainably sourced?
Yes, we prioritize sustainable sourcing by working with suppliers who adhere to ethical and environmentally friendly practices. We ensure our ingredients are non-GMO, organic (when applicable), and compliant with global sustainability standards.
Do we offer long-term supply agreements?
Yes, we provide long-term supply agreements for businesses that require consistent and reliable sourcing. Our contracts are flexible and can be tailored to meet specific client needs.
Can you assist with formulation or application development?
Yes, we offer technical support and formulation assistance, helping clients develop new products or optimize existing formulations. Our R&D team provides guidance on ingredient compatibility, efficacy, and market trends.
