Comprehensive R&D and Quality Control
Pre-Product Research and Dosage Form Design
The starting point of R&D lies in gaining a deep understanding of the product's inherent characteristics—such as solubility and stability—and determining whether it is best suited for formulation as a hard capsule or a soft capsule. In some instances, this process may also involve more complex formulation technologies, such as the use of pellets or enteric coatings.
Product Development and Process Optimization
Based on the product's characteristics, appropriate excipients (such as fillers, suspending agents, antioxidants, etc.) are selected and blended with the product to form a stable core formulation. Simultaneously, key parameters within the manufacturing process—such as mixing time, drying temperature, and humidity—are established; this constitutes a critical step in achieving "quality by design."
Determination of Key Quality Indicators:
Leveraging the Quality by Design (QbD) philosophy, attributes that exert a decisive influence on product quality—known as Critical Quality Attributes (CQAs)—are systematically identified during the R&D phase. Examples include content uniformity, dissolution, and stability; furthermore, their target ranges are clearly defined.
Stability Studies
By simulating various environmental conditions (temperature, humidity), these studies systematically evaluate changes in the capsules' quality during storage to determine their shelf life. The research typically comprises accelerated testing (e.g., monitoring for 3–6 months at 40°C/75% RH) and long-term testing (e.g., conducted at 25°C/60% RH).
Purity Promise
No artificial colors, non-GMO, allergen-free (Clean Label solutions available upon request).

Send an Inquiry - What Is the Difference Between Gelatin and Vegetarian Capsules for Supplement OEM?
When choosing capsule shells for your dietary supplement OEM project, the primary decision is between gelatin capsules and vegetarian HPMC capsules. Each option has distinct characteristics that affect product stability, consumer appeal, and manufacturing requirements.
Gelatin vs. Vegetarian Capsules: Quick Comparison
Gelatin Capsules- Source: Animal-derived (bovine or porcine gelatin)
- Appearance: Clear, glossy, transparent
- Dissolution: Fast dissolution in stomach acid
- Cost: Generally lower cost per unit
- Stability: May cross-link with certain ingredients; sensitive to high humidity
- Consumer Base: Broad general market; not suitable for vegetarians or certain religious groups
Vegetarian HPMC Capsules- Source: Plant-derived (hydroxypropyl methylcellulose from pine or cotton)
- Appearance: Opaque or semi-transparent
- Dissolution: Consistent dissolution, independent of pH
- Cost: Moderate to higher cost per unit
- Stability: Low moisture content (3-7%); excellent for hygroscopic and moisture-sensitive ingredients
- Consumer Base: Vegetarians, vegans, Halal/Kosher markets, and health-conscious consumers
Key Considerations for Your OEM Decision
Consider your target climate: HPMC performs better in high-humidity regions due to its lower moisture content and superior stability.
Evaluate your target market: Vegetarian capsules open access to growing plant-based, Halal, and Kosher consumer segments worldwide.
Assess your formula: Hygroscopic or moisture-sensitive active ingredients typically pair better with HPMC capsules to prevent degradation.
Balance cost and positioning: Gelatin offers a lower entry price point, while HPMC supports premium brand positioning and broader certifications.
