Can you move a product from capsules to tablets?

Yes. When an eye-health formula kept failing in encapsulation, we moved it to a direct-compression tablet, got samples approved and designed the stability protocol for a three-year expiry. It shipped in 2024.

Can you make vegan capsules and softgels?

Yes. We make vegan hard-shell capsules and vegan softgels, as well as gelatin ones: bovine and fish gelatin for softgels.

Do you develop chewables?

Yes. A two-a-day prenatal chewable with coated B vitamins is in production now, due for dispatch in late October 2026.

How long from design to a production order?

From our records: 32 days for a complex herbal capsule, and under seven weeks for an eye-health formula with a 60-count pack and a trial pack.

Do you manage reorders?

Yes. BWellness has had five production batches of its tablet since 2021 with a sixth in the pipeline, and Arxi's preconception capsule has had three production orders since 2024.

Who manufactures the product?

cGMP manufacturing partners matched to your format, volume and margin. We manage the factory, so you don't have to: specification, packaging, labelling, release testing, imports and freight, through to your warehouse or 3PL. See managed manufacturing.

Manufacturing

Capsule, tablet and softgel supplements, from formula to delivery

We develop capsule, tablet, chewable and softgel products and manage their manufacture through cGMP partners matched to the format, the volume and the margin, from the first formula to delivery at your warehouse.

Capsule, tablet or softgel?

The format follows the formula, the dose and the customer, and sometimes the production line decides. A capsule isn't always a medicine, either: its pathway turns mostly on how it is presented, starting with its claims (medicine, food or cosmetic?). From our records:

A wet blend won't encapsulate. An eye-health formula kept failing in encapsulation because the ingredient mix was too wet; hand-filling would have added one to two months. We moved it to a direct-compression tablet mid-project (eye health supplements).
Oils go in softgels. Fish oil and krill oil are built as softgel capsules.
Taste decides chewables. B vitamins and selenium are bitter and smell strongly; a two-a-day prenatal chewable uses coated B vitamins to tame the taste.
Ingredient count sets the size. The range runs from a single-ingredient tablet to complex herbal capsules of 13 or more ingredients.

Capsules

Our most common format, and usually the quickest to develop. We make gelatin and vegan hard-shell capsules, delayed-release, acid-resistant and liquid-filled. They're popular for CoQ10, ashwagandha, curcumin, probiotics, magnesium glycinate, and sleep and stress blends. Choose a capsule when you have powders or extracts at moderate doses, from a single clinically studied extract to a complex herbal blend.

From our records, from a four-ingredient formula to complex herbal blends of 13 or more ingredients:

EverLeanBody: a four-ingredient capsule built around affron®, a clinically studied saffron extract, with L-theanine, lemon balm and active-form B vitamins. 5.8 months from signed brief to dispatch.
A complex herbal capsule built around KSM-66® ashwagandha, with an evidence package covering more than 13 ingredients: design to production order in 32 days.
Vitable: a TGA-listed capsule with more than 13 ingredients, in a 100% recycled PET bottle.

Tablets and chewables

More dose in one unit, and more control over how it releases. We make direct-compression, film-coated, chewable, effervescent, orally disintegrating, sublingual, bilayer and extended-release tablets. They're popular for magnesium, B-complex, iron, effervescent vitamin C and electrolytes, and chewable prenatals. Choose a tablet when the dose is high, the taste needs masking, or your customers won't swallow a capsule. For a softer chew, see gummies.

From our records, direct-compression tablets and two-a-day chewables:

Your Skin Scan: a single-ingredient 500 mg nicotinamide tablet, 120 per bottle, as a TGA-listed medicine.
BWellness: a 60-tablet formula built on EnXtra®, with five production batches from 2021 to 2025.
An Arxi prenatal moved from a liquid drop to a two-a-day chewable, now in production.

Softgels

Oils and oil-soluble nutrients, sealed in an easy-to-swallow shell. We make bovine and fish gelatin, vegan, chewable and enteric-coated softgels. They're popular for fish, krill and algal omega-3, vitamin D3, CoQ10 in oil, vitamin E and evening primrose oil. Choose a softgel when your actives are oils or dissolve in oil.

From our records: a fish oil and a krill oil capsule for an established natural health company, taken from formula into production, with the fish oil since reordered. More in our omega-3 and fish oil guide.

Packs and stability

Packs we have delivered include 60-count packs, 120-count bottles, 100% recycled PET bottles (sustainable packaging) and 7-day trial packs for sampling (sample packs). See packaging and labelling. A stability program supports the shelf life on the label: 24-month programs on recent capsules, and a protocol designed to support a three-year expiry on an eye-health tablet. What the TGA expects is in our stability testing guide.
