The global empty capsules market is expected to reach US$ 3,122.5 Mn by the end of 2027.

Empty Capsules Market


Gelatin obtained from animal bones and skins is used to make hard gelatin capsules. These capsules are made up of two halves: a lower-diameter "body" that is filled, and a higher-diameter "cap" that seals the capsule. Dry, powdered materials or small pellets, semi-solids, and liquids are encapsulated in hard gelatin capsules.

Drivers of the Global Empty Capsules Market

Over the forecast period, the Empty Capsules Market is expected to rise due to rising demand for vegetable/non-gelatin capsules. This is due to the public's growing preference for vegetable/non-gelatin capsules and organic products.

Furthermore, rising usage of hydroxypropylmethylcellulose-based capsules is likely to boost market growth. Vegetable cellulose is used to make hydroxypropylmethylcellulose. Preservatives, gelatin, wheat, gluten, animal by-products, and starch are all absent. Cellulose is the best capsule foundation for compounds that are semi-solid or gel-like in nature.

In 2014, the North American region dominated the global empty capsules market, accounting for 40.3 percent of total volume, followed by 2027.

Restraints in the Global Empty Capsules Market

In people who are allergic to cow or bovine gelatin products, gelatin capsules cause allergy-like symptoms. As a result, the market's expansion is projected to be hampered.

Furthermore, the Empty Capsules Market expansion is projected to be hampered by the high cost of vegetarian capsules. The high price of vegetarian capsules is due to the high cost of manufacturing and raw materials.
