The global empty gelatin capsule market is anticipated to grow at 8.1% between now and 2028, according to a report from Research & Markets. The major factor for the growth of the market is the increasing prevalence of chronic diseases such as CVD, cancer, diabetes, and gastrointestinal diseases coupled with the rising demand for gelatin capsules.
Also, an increase in technological development in the pharmaceutical industry to manufacture plant-derived capsules is expected to provide various opportunities for expansion of the global empty capsules market during the forecast period. For instance, in February 2021, Qualicaps Europe expanded its presence in the South Asia region. In addition to two production sites based in Europe, the company has capsule manufacturing experts located in the EMEA and South Asia.
