Tablets, Capsules, Powders or Syrups? Choosing the Right Format for Wellness Products
When you create a wellness product, the format you choose matters as much as the ingredients. It affects how customers use it, how long it lasts and how much it costs to make.
Tablets
Compact, stable and cost-effective. Tablets are great for vitamins, minerals and many herbal products. They can be coated to improve taste and swallowing.
Capsules
Capsules hide taste and are easy to swallow. Vegetarian HPMC capsules suit customers who prefer plant-based options, and soft-gels are ideal for oils.
Powders and sachets
Perfect for protein, electrolyte and larger-dose nutrition products. Customers can mix them with water or milk, and flavours make them enjoyable.
Syrups and liquids
Easy for children and older adults. Liquids need careful work on taste, preservation and stability.
Oils, creams and gels
Common for Ayurvedic massage oils and personal care products applied to the skin or hair.
How to decide
- Who is your customer and how will they use it?
- What dose is needed per day?
- Are the ingredients sensitive to moisture, heat or light?
- What price point are you targeting?
