Popularity of Non-gelatin Capsules Rises; Gelatin Capsules Still Reign Supreme

Gelatin, historically and predominantly has been used as a film former for hard and soft shell capsules. As it is a purified protein obtained from the collagen of animals, speculations have risen about its use amid concerns over animal safety. Consequently, the gelatin capsules segment is projected to lose market share during the forecast period. This will also drive the demand for environment-friendly, non-gelatin capsules, which will see a meteoric growth of ~11% during the forecast period. Despite the over-arching claims surrounding its controversial usage, gelatin capsules will continue to dominate the market, accounting for ~89% of the market share in 2027.

Natural Gelatin and Nutraceuticals: Two Keys to Unlock Potential

As animal sources of gelatin capsules are culture- and religion-sensitive, this could impede the global empty capsules market to some extent. It would also give traction to natural or synthetic sources of gelatin, and would pave the way for their upward growth trajectory. However, product yield from these sources is comparatively lesser, though increased output from these sources is possible with technological intervention.

Healthier lifestyles have led to a rampant increase in the demand and consumption of nutraceuticals. Available in the gelatin capsule format, they are propelling the growth of the empty capsules market. Nutraceutical applications have evolved considerably over the last few years, and have gained significant recognition in the food and dietary supplements market, owing to their superlative nutritional profile and technological properties. As nutraceuticals witness greater adoption, stakeholders will respond promptly to optimize their growth and enhance competitiveness.

Europe’s Attractiveness Soars, Asia Pacific Catching Up

Europe is projected to be the most attractive region in the empty capsules market, with an attractiveness index of 1.9 during the forecast period. The presence of key pharmaceutical and nutraceutical industries along with the incessant adoption of newer technologies will be some of the factors that put Europe into the spotlight.

Asia Pacific will be the third-most attractive regional market for empty capsules in terms of attractiveness, and will see its revenue triple by the end of the forecast period. Rise in per capita healthcare expenditure in countries such as China and India will bolster the growth of the market in these regions.
