Manufacturing
Every single Capsugel hard gelatin capsule originates from high-quality gelatin derived from collagen, a fibrillary protein composed of eighteen different amino acids found in connective tissues and bones. Natural bovine or porcine collagen is macerated and purified using either acids or alkalis, depending on the production process. The collagen splits hydrolytically into an unbranched amino acid chain with a molecular weight ranging from 40,000 to 100,000. This results in a high-grade, consistent granular gelatin.
Raw Material
Exclusive bovine bone gelatin, guaranteed BSE/TSE free sources, is used for the production of gelatin capsules.Vegetable products are made of guaranteed 100% vegetal based (HPMC) raw materials.
Halal Capsule
Halal Capsule has been selected as the raw material for the 100% beef bones produced by the world’s most famous gelatin dealer Roselle. All the raw materials are in line with the United States Pharmacopoeia, the European Pharmacopoeia, and other major pharmacopoeia standards, excluding mad cow virus. For Jewish and Muslim consumers, we can provide Jewish and (HALAL) for the raw materials .
Plant Capsule
Plant Capsule as a high-tech product is made from seaweed extracted carrageenan and plant fibers through new technology. It meets the natural, green and healthy modern consumption concept. It’s protein free, fat-free features meet the requirements of vegetarians and special cultures, expanding the application of capsules.
Enteric Capsule
Enteric capsule is made from gelatin and enteric coating material, which cannot disintegration in the gastric juice, but can release a target-based drug or health food in intestinal juice. It’s often applied for the drugs which cause irritant effects in stomach, duodenum, and the small intestine or these which are not stable in acid, especially for those which need to dissolve in colon Above all, it can improve drug efficacy, lower dosage and reduce the side effects on human body.

Packing-material
Original Capsugel package
Consisting of corrugated cardboard boxes lined with anti-static polyethylene bags, the original Zhaofeng package is a highly suitable storage option. The recommended storage conditions using Zhaofeng package packaging are 35%-65% R.H.and 15-25°C. Each bag is closed with a tamper-proof safety seal and clearly labelled with the specific contents and recommended storage conditions.
Ideal storage conditions
When the capsules are packaged, the job still is not finished. Correct storage and packaging are important performance factors. Finished gelatin capsules leave the factory with a moisture content range of 13% to 16%. To maintain this, ideal storage conditions are 50% R.H. (relative humidity) at 21°C.
