What Are Pullulan Capsules?

Pullulan capsules derive from tapioca starch, offering a natural vegan alternative to gelatine. In contrast to HPMC capsules, pullulan dissolves more rapidly, making it ideal for immediate-release formulations. These capsules possess low oxygen permeability, safeguarding sensitive ingredients against oxidation. They are inert and compatible with pH-sensitive antioxidants or probiotics. Whether you are crafting custom supplements or encapsulating herbal extracts, pullulan delivers a flexible and trustworthy solution.

Choosing the Right Capsule Size

Size 0 capsules measure approximately 7.6 mm in diameter and 21.6 mm in length – a medium-large size suitable for adults and pets. Compare with other sizes: size 00 is larger (holds more), size 1 is smaller. The exact fill weight depends on the ingredient’s density; always consult a capsule size chart to match your formulation needs. For high-volume servings, size 0 offers a good balance between capacity and ease of swallowing.
