The dietary supplement and functional food markets are moving faster than ever. As consumers increasingly demand higher efficacy, cleaner labels, and faster absorption, traditional powder-filled capsules and standard compressed tablets are often no longer enough to make a brand stand out on a crowded shelf. Formulators and brand owners are continuously challenged to solve complex stability issues, enhance bioavailability, and deliver novel aesthetic experiences.
Among advanced delivery systems, liquid-filled hard capsule (LFHC) technology has emerged as one of the most powerful tools for product differentiation. ADCHEM specializes in cutting-edge liquid-filled configurations across our global network, enabling brands worldwide to utilize their own formulations or have customized solutions developed by our experts.
Our specialized liquid-filled capabilities span several advanced configurations:
• Pure Oil-in-Capsule
Optimal for delivering fat soluble active ingredients with enhanced bioavailability and rapid systemic absorption.
• Beadlets in Liquid-Filled Capsules
Combines active beadlets suspended within a liquid matrix for multi-phase release profiles and synergistic ingredient delivery.
• Capsule-in-Capsule
Encapsulates a smaller inner unit within a larger capsule for complex, multi-stage, or timed release formulations.
