Softgels vs Hard Capsules
The choice between softgels and hard capsules depends on several factors.
Nature of active ingredients
Soft capsules are ideal for liquid or oil-based ingredients while hard capsules are better suited for dry, powdered ingredients.
Consumer preferences
Softgels are favored for their ease of swallowing and lack of taste or odor, making them a popular choice for consumers who have difficulty swallowing hard capsules or tablets. Hard capsules are popular among consumers that prefer a plant-based alternative.
Visual presentation
Both softgels and hard capsules offer a range of visually appealing options in terms of size and color, enhancing their attractiveness to consumers and allowing for versatile brand representation.
Manufacturing Considerations
The manufacturing of softgels is more complex and typically more costly due to the encapsulation process of liquids or semi-solids. Hard capsules may be a more economical choice due to simpler manufacturing processes and material costs.
