Soft Capsules

Seamless gelatin films for liquid-filled capsule delivery

Superior Film Performance for High-Speed Encapsulation

Soft gelatin capsules are the preferred delivery system for liquids, oils and semi-solid formulations. Our dedicated softgel gelatin grades provide excellent film elasticity, superior seal strength and optimal plasticity, enabling high-speed encapsulation with low rejection rates and consistent finished product quality.

Soft Capsule Applications

Excellent Film Forming

Uniform ribbon thickness and consistent gel strength

Superior Seal Strength

Strong seam integrity prevents leakage

APPLICATION PROCESS

Soft Capsule Manufacturing Process

01

Gel Preparation

Gelatin is dissolved in heated water with plasticizers (glycerin/sorbitol) to form a homogenous gel mass at 60–70°C with controlled viscosity

02

Encapsulation

Gel ribbons are formed and fed into rotary die machines where fill material is injected and capsules are simultaneously formed and sealed

03

Drying

Multi-stage tumble drying over 24–48 hours reduces moisture from ~60% to 6–10% achieving target shell hardness and fill compatibility

04

Inspection

Automated visual inspection for capsule integrity, dimensional accuracy, and leakage detection ensures only defect-free products proceed
