Technological Developments in the Industry Boosts the Market Growth for Empty Capsules
The growing popularity of capsules over other drug delivery forms has been the major driver of the market.

Development of technologies such as capsule-in-capsule to protect gastric-sensitive active ingredients allows for the improvement of gastrointestinal safety for patients who couldn’t receive capsule medication. An overall improved product development helped achieve significant penetration into wider populations. The Covid-19 pandemic is expected to be a major driver for this market for the forecast period.
