Soft Gel Capsules

Only special lecithins can fulfill the specific requirements in terms of viscosity range, stability, impurities, colour stability batch-to-batch and microbiological control.

Not every lecithin is suitable for the production of soft gel capsules. Only special lecithins, conceived for this application, can fulfill the specific requirements:

• Viscosity range adapted to the manufacturer’s capsules production process.
• Stability to avoid oil separation, which damages the product’s image in transparent capsules.
• Minimized impurities, that affect lecithin’s transparency and might also deteriorate the product’s aspect.
• Stabilized colour batch-to-batch, avoiding colour changes in the capsule and improving the perception of quality.
• Strict microbiological control, critical point in a lecithin suitable for direct consumption.
