# How to Choose the Correct Liquid-Filled Hard Capsule Manufacturer

Posted by [CapsCanada](https://blog.lyfegroup.com/author/capscanada) on Jul 7, 2021, 10:00:00 a.m.

One of the keys to develop the competitive profile of your business in the pharmaceutical and nutraceutical market is to simplify the logistics of your product development. When your objective is to produce a liquid-filled capsule product, choosing the right manufacturer is critical for many reasons—including logistics. You need to find a partner that has the experience and technical expertise to support a significant group of complex processes as well as the capacity to innovate.

What should you look for when choosing a [liquid-filled hard capsules manufacturer](https://blog.lyfegroup.com/liquid-filled-hard-capsule-tecnology)? What are the skills necessary to simplify and support your product development? The following provides an overview of what you need to know:

# Is their facility ready for your business challenges?

 

To simplify and accelerate a launch process you need to have the right resources and technology available for your business. An ideal partner for the development of your pharmaceutical and nutraceutical products can offer you all the benefits of a [fully-equipped facility](https://capscanada.com/services/technical-service/) that is ready to produce large-scale quantities.

With [suitable equipment and the right team](https://blog.lyfegroup.com/ideal-capsule-manufacturer-technical-service), a partner must offer agile and offer flexible solutions that can comply with all the industry standards.

In these aspects, Lyfe Group exceeds the expectations. Our facility:

- Is a dedicated facility for all liquid fills.
- Has a full analytical lab.
- Can do stability and release testing.

# Do they offer formulation assistance?

The best way to ensure that your formulation will function properly from the manufacturing perspective is to work with a manufacturer that offers formulation assistance.

# Do they have the necessary technical expertise?

 

"[Liquid-filled hard capsules” refers to a spectrum of products](https://blog.lyfegroup.com/liquid-filled-hard-capsule-tecnology). In addition to hard capsules filled with liquids, this can also mean hard capsules that are filled with suspensions, semi-solids, pastes or waxy substances. Having all these dosage forms available is important for ensuring that you develop the right product for your market.

Lyfe Group has the expertise to encapsulate all of these filling types, using either gelatin or HPMC Capsules. This combination of abilities enables your business to produce natural products for the nutraceutical market or capsules with complex APIs for the pharmaceutical industry.

[![gelatin capsules brochure](https://no-cache.hubspot.com/cta/default/7215323/a86c2e8b-555e-4f56-b80b-95e514ea0364.png)](https://cta-redirect.hubspot.com/cta/redirect/7215323/a86c2e8b-555e-4f56-b80b-95e514ea0364)

# Do they have the right product certifications to reach a diverse market?

 

More than ever, consumers [are aware of the products they buy](https://www.scientistlive.com/content/17798) and how they are made, a trend that increases in popularity every year. That’s why it is essential to choose a partner that offers certifications that confirm the key features that are most important to your consumers and open up new markets for your business.

Lyfe Group offers the most popular certifications in the industry for our empty capsules, thereby guaranteeing that your product complies with consumer expectations:

- **Halal and kosher certified** (both gelatin and HPMC capsules)
- **No preservatives, prions or BSE** (both gelatin and HPMC capsules)
