Market Overview:
The global gelatin based capsules market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.5% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The growth in this market can be attributed to the increasing demand for gelatin based capsules from the pharmaceutical and healthcare industries. In addition, the growing trend of using softgel capsules is also contributing to the growth of this market. On the basis of type, softgel capsules are expected to account for a major share of the global gelatin based capsules market during the forecast period. This can be attributed to their advantages such as ease-of-use, portability and better absorption as compared to hard gelatine capsules.
Product Definition:
A gelatin capsule is a smooth, round, thin-walled container made from gelatin and water. It is used to encapsulate powders or pellets for oral administration.
Soft Gelatin Capsule:
Soft gelatin capsule is a type of pharmaceutical capsule made from collagen, which is derived from animal sources such as bovine and porcine. It has several unique properties that make it suitable for use in drug delivery including being relatively inert, having a high melting point (around 70°C), and the ability to be easily opened or dissolution-edited using hydrochloric acid (HCL) or other strong bases.
Hard Gelatin Capsule:
Hard gelatin capsule or hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose is a non-saccharide polymer. It is produced from the partial deacetylation of hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose. It has high thermal stability and excellent mechanical strength making it suitable for manufacturing hard gelatin capsulesules.
Application Insights:
Preparation of drugs was the largest application segment in 2017 and is expected to continue its dominance over the forecast period. Gelatin based capsules are used for manufacturing medicines that require a solid dose delivery, as they offer better accuracy than other dosage forms such as powder or liquid. The drug encapsulation process also allows manufacturers to design different types of capsules with different colors, shapes and markings according to their specific needs.
The health care products segment is projected to witness lucrative growth during the forecast period owing to rising demand for gelatin capsules from pharmaceutical companies for producing various healthcare products including vitamins, minerals & herbs supplements and medical food.

Regional Analysis:
North America accounted for the largest share of over 35.0% in 2017, owing to high product demand as a result of rising geriatric population and lifestyle diseases. The region is expected to maintain its dominance during the forecast period due to increasing R&D activities and presence of key manufacturers such as B C Sciences Corporation; FMC Corporation; Geltech International Inc.; and J W Childs & Company LLC.
Asia Pacific is anticipated to be one of the fastest growing regions with a CAGR exceeding 6.5% from 2018 to 2030 owing hernia treatment using soft gelatin capsules due their ease in administration, low incidence rate, rapid recovery time, reduced scarring post-operative course thus promoting better patient compliance leading higher revenue generation for manufacturers/suppliers over the forecast period.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for nutraceuticals and dietary supplements: The global nutraceuticals market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 7.5% from 2016 to 2021. This growth can be attributed to the increasing awareness about the benefits of consuming nutraceuticals and dietary supplements among consumers across the world. Gelatin capsules are widely used in the manufacture of nutraceuticals and dietary supplements, owing to their ability to protect ingredients from moisture and light exposure.
- Rising demand for personalized medicine: The global personalized medicine market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 16% from 2016-2021. This growth can be attributed to the increasing preference for customized therapies among patients across the world, due to their better efficacy and safety profile as compared with traditional therapies. Gelatin capsules are widely used in personalized medicine due its abilityto protect ingredients from moistureand light exposure .
