Who fills, seals and labels your capsules and softgels
Two lines in Shanghai: hard capsule filling and softgel compression, scheduled separately so neither waits on the other. Every standard capsule size and every softgel die is already in house, so your format adds no tooling fee and no extra weeks. This page is what a buyer checks before the first purchase order.

Who it fits
A fit for
- DTC founders building a Shopify-first brand Ready-to-label gets you to a first SKU without a formulation budget.
- Creators and operators with an audience You can test demand before committing to the run.
- Sellers who have already asked three to five suppliers You want a straight answer on volume, format and landed cost.
- Regional distributors and offline brands One landed cost and a batch record you can hand to your buyer.
Not a fit
- You need a full registration dossier We issue batch documents, not registration dossiers.
- Your first order is for Amazon US, CA or EU, or a mass retailer We do not sell that first order: a supplier is not what fixes a listing.
- You want gummies, powders, sachets or liquids Format mismatch: hard capsules and softgels only.
- You need fewer than 3,000 bottles 3,000 bottles per SKU is the run size for both formats.
- An audit is a precondition of the first order Audits can be arranged, but they are not a gate on a first run.
Two formats, one minimum, one landed cost. If your first order needs something on the right-hand list, we will say so in the first reply rather than in week six.

Production
Hard capsule filling and softgel compression run as two separate lines and are scheduled separately: neither shares a changeover window with the other, so a softgel run does not wait behind a capsule run. Both lines take the same 3,000-bottle minimum.
Every size you can pick is already on the floor:
- Hard capsules: #000, #00el, #00, #0, #1, #2, #3 and #4 — eight standard sizes. Choosing one adds no tooling fee and no extra weeks.
- Softgels: fifteen dies — oval 5, 6, 7.5, 10, 12, 14 and 20; oblong 6, 8, 11, 14 and 20; round 2, 3 and 5. A new die is quoted separately, with its own lead time.
A first run of 3,000 bottles goes through the same batch record, the same in-process checks and the same COA as a commercial run. The difference is scheduling priority, not standard.
Fill weight is quoted as a range per size rather than one number on a chart, because it follows the density of your powder or your oil.
We do not run gummies, powders, sachets, stick packs or liquids. If your product is one of those, we are the wrong supplier, and we will say so in the first reply.

Delivery
DDP means one landed cost, delivered: production, export clearance, freight, import duty, customs clearance and delivery to your address sit inside the price. We quote DDP only for the markets we can actually serve; where we cannot, we say so and quote FOB.
- Bulk Labelled cartons to your warehouse, your 3PL or your own packing line.
- Retail-ready Your bottle and your label: we fill, seal and label.
- Per-order fulfilment Not confirmed yet: warehousing, system integration, returns and transit times are still being validated.
Ask for your market and we confirm DDP with your quote.
DDP decides who moves the goods, not who owns the claim. Product compliance in your market stays with you.
