The global softgel capsule market is anticipated to grow at a considerable CAGR of 6.2% during the forecast period (2023-2030). Growing consumer demand for plant-based capsules due to rising sustainability and eco-friendliness awareness as well as consumer preference for organic, vegetarian/vegan goods is generate lucrative opportunities for market growth. Plant-based capsules are a safer alternative for a wider spectrum of individuals since they don't include common allergies like dairy, gluten, and soy. For example plantegrity softgel range, most softgel capsules are made of bovine, porcine, or fish gelatin. Plantegrity capsules are 100% vegetarian. The first generation plantegrity softgels contain carrageen, extracted from seaweeds. Manufacturers are developing new plant-based materials that offer enhanced functionality and performance as capsule shells. Such innovations will further help strengthen the market outlook. For instance, in March 2021, Delpharm Evreux, European contract development and manufacturing organization (CDMO) in collaboration with Roquette, has successfully scaled and qualified a new softgel capsule with a plant-based shell. Based on Roquette’s LYCAGE pea starch softgel technology, this vegetarian softgel is composed of hydroxypropyl pea starch, carrageenan and other functional ingredients. It meets the requirements for both nutraceutical supplement and pharmaceutical softgel products.

The most common soft-capsule shell material is animal-based gelatin, which can be found in different gel strengths and is commonly derived from bovine, pig, or piscine skin and/or bone. It melts at a temperature of around 60 °C and has an acidic pH, forming a gel with a relatively low viscosity. Plant-based solutions such as carrageenan or modified starches require greater temperatures to combine, transfer, and encapsulate than gelatin. By simply adding heat and temperature control systems to existing gelatin equipment, manufacturers can often include carrageenan or starch soft capsules into their current gelatin operations with minimal capital expenditure. Once set up, the encapsulation process may quickly switch between producing gelatin and non-animal capsules depending on the situation, offering product flexibility and allowing manufacturers to stay agile in this increasingly competitive market.
