Do they have the necessary technical expertise?

"Liquid-filled hard capsules” refers to a spectrum of products. In addition to hard capsules filled with liquids, this can also mean hard capsules that are filled with suspensions, semi-solids, pastes or waxy substances. Having all these dosage forms available is important for ensuring that you develop the right product for your market.

CapsCanada has the expertise to encapsulate all of these filling types, using either gelatin or HPMC Capsules. This combination of abilities enables your business to produce natural products for the nutraceutical market or capsules with complex APIs for the pharmaceutical industry.

Do they have the right product certifications to reach a diverse market?

More than ever, consumers are aware of the products they buy and how they are made, a trend that increases in popularity every year. That’s why it is essential to choose a partner that offers certifications that confirm the key features that are most important to your consumers and open up new markets for your business.

CapsCanada offers the most popular certifications in the industry for our empty capsules, thereby guaranteeing that your product complies with consumer expectations:

• Halal and kosher certified (both gelatin and HPMC capsules)
