A non-gelatin softgel route for oil-based active ingredients.
JINCAPS evaluates plant-starch softgel shell compatibility for cosmetic oils, hair oils, omega oils, algae DHA/EPA, vitamin D3, CoQ10 and other oil-based projects.
What plant-starch softgel means for buyers.
The technology is not a generic hard capsule or empty capsule offer. It is a softgel shell route for formulas that need a flexible capsule around oil-based contents.
| Format | Best use | Buyer question |
|---|---|---|
| Plant-starch softgel | Oil-based beauty formulas, hair oils, omega oils, vitamin oils and premium single-dose capsules. | Can my fill material work with the shell and target pack? |
| Gelatin softgel | Conventional supplement softgels where animal-origin gelatin is accepted. | Is animal-origin gelatin acceptable for the consumer and target market? |
| Hard capsule | Powder or granule fills, usually not the right first choice for oily cosmetic capsule formats. | Is the project actually an oil softgel or a powder capsule? |
The shell and fill must be reviewed together.
A capsule project can fail if the website promises too much too early. JINCAPS uses feasibility language because oil, fragrance, viscosity, moisture and target packaging all matter.
- Fill type and oil phase behavior.
- Fragrance, volatility and sensitive ingredients.
- Desired fill weight, capsule shape and opening experience.
- Target market, documentation and claim requirements.
- Packaging route and commercial quantity target.
