Automatic Liquid Capsule Filling Machines to Generate Greater Returns to Shareholders
Considering the need for continuous output, end users prefer automatic liquid capsule filling machines. These automatic machines offer liquid filling in capsules with greater accuracy and faster speed. This FMI study underlines that, around 9 out of 10 liquid capsule filling machines utilized across several end-use industries are automatic. However, R&D labs and small-scale pharma manufacturers are yet to incorporate them due to cost constraints.
Developed Regions Continue to Engage Market Players
Harboring prominent manufacturers and advanced R&D labs in pharmaceuticals and biologics, the liquid capsule filling machines markets in North America and Europe would maintain their hegemony in the global scenario. Together, both these regions procure over half of overall market stack. Further, driven by the rapid adoption of automation technology in order to enhance industrial efficiency, manufacturers continue to allocate their resources to North America and Europe. Market players are focusing on strategic convening and capacity expansion for strengthening their business foothold.
Consumption of Vegetarian Capsules to Shape Future Outlook
Market players are placing their investments on vegetarian capsules, owing to their resistance against manufacture-related issues and cross-linking. Moreover, vegetarian capsules exhibit features such as low moisture content, lower hygroscopicity, and high stability in extreme temperatures and humidity.
On the other hand, consumers are increasingly shifting towards vegetarian capsules, as they are toxin-free and completely organic, as well as easily align with religious and health restrictions. Influenced by the growing prevalence of nutraceuticals in natural ingredients, liquid capsule filling machine manufacturers must thus capitalize on this opportunity to maintain their business footprint.
How Growth will Unfold
Capturing over 80% share of total market value, drug manufacturers would be the primary customers of liquid capsule filling machines. While leading pharma manufacturers incorporate in-house filling stations, mid-sized pharma manufacturers outsource their filling requirements to contract manufacturers. Further, drug manufacturers prefer high output capacity liquid capsule filling machines, owing to need for high output. However, output requirement in R&D labs is relatively low, and, as such, they bank on low capacity liquid capsule filling machines.
