Deliver the functionality you need in your capsule dosage forms

Capsules remain a popular solid dosage form across the pharmaceutical industry due to their cost-effectiveness, ease of formulation, processibility, storage robustness, ability to house many active ingredients and range of capsule sizes available.

We’ve honed decades of deep experience in the capsule space to ensure our plant-powered ingredients, derived from sources like seaweed and cellulosics, enable differentiated and successful formulations that bring benefits to you and patients globally.
