Product Description

Hard Capsule: or two-piece capsules which are composed of two pieces in the form of cylinders closed at one end. The shorter piece called the “cap”, fits over the open end of the longer piece, called the “body”.

The cellulose used to manufacture HPMC capsules is derived from trees, inert, and free from animal source-related issues. Low moisture content, ideal for moisture-sensitive and liquid formulations.

HPMC Capsules are odorless and tasteless, easy to swallow, and effectively mask taste and odor. The oral bioavailability of these capsules is identical to hard gelatin capsules.

Storage precautions

1. Keep the Inventory temperature at 10 to 30℃; Relative humidity remains at 35-65%.

2. The capsules are supposed to be kept in clean, dry and ventilated warehouse, and are not allowed to be exposed to strong sunlight or humid environment. Besides, as they are too light to be fragile, the heavy cargos should not pile up.

One of the key features that set our HPMC empty gelatin capsules apart is their user-friendly design. These empty capsules come in a variety of sizes, from #00 to #4, ensuring you can easily accommodate any dose of your supplement.
