Our Capsules: good all round
For over 180 years, gelatine capsules have been an excellent way of packaging nutrients, food supplements and medicines in a taste-neutral, easy-to-ingest and safe way. The family-owned company GELPELL has decades of experience in gelatine capsule production and food supplement processing. That’s why GELPELL is also your reliable partner for complex products.
In its own Swiss production facility, GELPELL manufactures a wide variety of capsule types and shapes, even in small quantities. On request, we also develop formulas for traditional and trend products, procure first-class raw materials and fill the capsules using the latest manufacturing technologies. Unique are GELPELL® beads, one of GELPELL’s own developments.
All GELPELL products meet the high requirements of ISO 22000 and ISO 13485 and Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP).
The raw materials used are neither genetically modified nor irradiated and comply with the EU Food Regulation. On request, we produce products with organic labelling and Clean Labelling.
We deliver your product in bulk or ready for sale.

Our own development, GELPELL® nutrient beads are an attractive innovation that has many advantages.
more...
- Their attractive dosage form is ideal for valuable active substances – a premium product at first sight.
- GELPELL® pearls have a clinically proven higher bioavailability. Active substances dissolve slowly and evenly in the body and are well absorbed.
- The round beads with a diameter of 0.8 to 2.0 millimetres are transparent, available in different colours and pleasant to swallow.
- The gelatine encloses the raw materials in an odourless and tasteless way. On request, we can supply the beads flavoured.
- We can incorporate raw materials that are difficult to handle or react with each other into a three-dimensional gelatine network with a concentration of up to 50 percent. Sensitive substances are protected from oxidation and hygroscopic substances are stabilised.
- Sensitive, oxidative raw materials or combinations of raw materials that react with each other can be processed gently and effectively. They are transported in their active form to where they are of best use in the body.
- As GELPELL® does not contain any additives such as preservatives and adjuvants, Clean Labelling is possible.
