Capsule Banding is defined as sealing of capsules filled with liquids, powders or other products. It is done to seal the joint between the capsule cap and body in order to prevent leakage of liquid products, reduce oxidation of the capsule’s contents, and to minimize the odor problems associated with both solid and liquid products. Once banded, the capsule is near impossible to open and re-seal without leaving evidence of tampering.
CapsCanada banding kits provide you with all necessary materials to create an in-house capsule banding solution. Available in both gelatin and vegetarian HPMC styles, CapsCanada banding kits can be matched to any Pantone color, creating product distinction and improving brand awareness.
Should a specific banding formula not meet the needs of your fill material, the CapsCanada product development specialists will work with you to create a custom banding solution that is capable of securely encasing the problematic fill material.
All capsule sizes use 10 kg of banding solution for every 1,000,000 capsules produced.
