SeaGel® technology is a plant-based alternative to gelatin in the production of soft capsules. Naturally derived from non-animal sources, our SeaGel® technology is easy to use, versatile and proven effective. It maintains structural integrity under high temperatures and can deliver a pure, superior quality product, time after time. 

• Addresses the needs of vegetarians and vegans who are opposed to ingesting gelatin-based soft capsules, as the shell is based on seaweed extract.
• Enabling non-GMO, vegan, vegetarian, Halal, Kosher and ‘clean label’ designations.
• Adaptable to many capsule brand strategies, including allowing for different capsule colors, shapes and printing. 
• Easily adjustable to existing gelatin operations, so it requires minimum capital investment to implement.
• Enables efficient processing, outstanding quality, superior sealing performance and reduced leakage compared to alternative vegetarian systems.
