Vegetarian Capsule Materials Market: Introduction

  • Growth in the pharmaceutical industry, increase in research & development activities, and advancements in capsule delivery technologies are some of the major factors driving the global vegetarian capsule materials market
  • Vegetarian capsules possess higher stability than gelatin capsules in different ranges of temperature as well as humidity, due to their lower moisture content and lower hygroscopicity. Vegetarian capsules gets freely dissolved in water at room temperature.
  • Emerging markets such as India, Thailand, and South Korea are expected to present significant opportunities for market players. However, cultural practices and dietary restrictions along with price fluctuations of raw materials are expected to challenge the market to a certain extent during the forecast period.

Key Drivers of Vegetarian Capsule Materials Market

  • Earlier, capsules were made from cellulose for manufacturing solid dosage forms for the pharmaceutical industry. Technological advancements have provided the vegetarian capsules industry with a wide range of functionality options for capsule-based formulations used by patients.
  • Of late, capsule delivery has witnessed a number of technological advancements in terms of product enhancement for better quality outcomes and patient comfort. These include improvement of capsule shells, filler materials, capsule-sealing techniques, and capsule systems to achieve modified drug release and the encapsulation of different materials.
  • Another key technology is the development of capsule-in-capsule technology to protect gastric-sensitive active ingredients. This allows for the use of minimal excipients for formulation, improvement of upper gastrointestinal safety, differentiated pharmacokinetic performance, and improved product development.
  • Technological development in gastro-resistant capsules and modified-release capsules is expected to boost the demand for vegetarian capsules in the pharmaceutical and nutraceutical industries
