Solid Forms - Capsules

Roquette’s capsules are ideal for a variety of formulations, offering portability, ease of use, and precise delivery. They support complex APIs and hygroscopic ingredients, ensuring stability and compliance with global standards. Available in multiple sizes, colors, and customization options, they enhance both pharmaceutical and nutraceutical products.

Capsules for Pharma and Consumer Healthcare Applications 

Solid oral dosage forms, including capsules, remain among the most widely used delivery options for patients and healthcare providers due to their patient-friendly nature: readily portable, convenient to self-administer, easy to swallow, stable, and precise in delivering the active ingredient. 

Hard two-piece capsules offer additional advantages, including less complex formulations, the ability to combine drug products, suitability for hygroscopic active ingredients, optional two-color designs for product differentiation, and an efficient manufacturing process with a reduced amount of steps.  

Roquette’s Qualicaps capsules suit a wide variety of formulations from dry powders and pellets to pastes and liquids, offering high-quality pharmaceutical-grade options in multiple sizes, colors, and printing options to help your product perform reliably and stand out in the market. Our pharma and nutra capsule portfolios are designed to address a broad range of formulation challenges, delivering reliable performance, stability, and regulatory compliance. 

For pharmaceutical applications, our capsules provide adaptability for complex active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), ensuring stability, dissolution, and reproducibility while meeting strict global regulatory standards. For nutraceutical applications, our 100% vegetal origin capsules offer tailored release profiles and a variety of sizes, colors, and customization options to enhance supplement efficacy, consumer experience, and on-shelf differentiation. 

Across all applications, our capsule technologies combine decades of expertise with forward-looking innovation, enabling an expanded, next-generation portfolio designed to meet tomorrow’s therapy needs.
