Capsule supplement manufacturing
F.A.M.E. Health Labs is a capsule manufacturer in Cedartown, Georgia, offering stock and custom capsule manufacturing on one cGMP campus with an ISO 17025 lab on site. Brand one of more than 290 stock capsule formulas from 500 units, or develop a custom capsule with our R&D team from 2,500 units.
Two ways to manufacture your capsule.
Start from a formula that already exists, or build one that does not. Both run on the same campus, with the same testing and the same certifications on the label.
Brand a stock capsule
Pick from more than 290 validated capsule formulas, add your label and launch from 500 units. Stock+ lets you change the actives or the dose from the same base at the same minimum. Samples are available on request, and runs under 30,000 units take 6 to 8 weeks after you approve the formula.
Build a custom capsule
Bring a formula or a brief and our R&D team develops it with you from 2,500 units: concept on day one, ingredients sourced from the 10,000+ actives held on campus in one to two weeks, a production-scale prototype, then stability and release. Custom runs take 8 to 12 weeks in total, with liposomal, enteric-coated and sustained-release designs available.
How capsule manufacturing works at F.A.M.E.
Six steps, all on one campus. The timeline for each route is at the end.
1. Brief and quote
Tell us the dose per serving, count per bottle, quantity and any certifications you need. We respond within 24 to 48 hours.
2. Sample
Stock formula samples are available on request. A custom capsule sample is prepared in about a week, with two rounds of changes included.
3. Formula and size
For a custom capsule, R&D starts the concept on day one, sources ingredients from the 10,000+ actives held on campus in one to two weeks, prepares a production-scale prototype, then runs stability before the formula is released. We choose the smallest capsule size, from 1 to 000, that carries your dose.
4. Order
You sign the sales order and ingredient report. The lead time starts when the order is signed and the deposit is paid.
5. Encapsulation, bottling and labeling
Capsules are filled, bottled, induction-sealed and labeled on our campus. Your label gets a compliance review before the first run.
6. Testing and release
Every batch gets identity and microbial testing in curí, the ISO 17025 lab on our campus, and ships with a certificate of analysis. Potency and heavy-metal panels are added to match your label claims.
How long it takes
Stock formula under 30,000 units: 6 to 8 weeks after you approve the formula. Custom formula: 8 to 12 weeks in total. Repeat and stock runs of 30,000+ units: four weeks from production start. Softgels are produced on qualified partner lines: plan on about 18 to 20 weeks for a first order, depending on the formulation.
Capsule manufacturing at a glance
The specifications buyers ask for before a first run, in one place. Our Cedartown campus encapsulates 100M+ capsules a day, so a launch order and a national rollout run on the same lines.
Capsule sizes
Sizes 1, 0, 00, 00EL and 000. A size 1 holds about 250 mg of powder, a 0 about 500 mg, a 00 about 800 mg, a 00EL about 850 mg and a 000 about 1,200 mg. We pick the smallest size that carries your dose.
Shells and release
Vegetarian and vegan shells run throughout the stock catalog. For actives that need to pass the stomach, our R&D team builds enteric-coated and sustained-release designs.
Ingredients on campus
More than 10,000 raw actives are held on site, so formulation starts from stock rather than waiting on a shipment. Bioavailability work such as piperine and micronization is done in-house.
Bottles and counts
HDPE and PET bottles from 75cc to 2 gallons are stock, in white, black, amber, clear and cobalt blue, with glass from 150 to 400cc. Sixty size-00 capsules fit a 120 to 200cc bottle, 90 fit 200 to 250cc and 120 fit 225 to 300cc. Every bottle is induction-sealed.
Labels and design
Bring print-ready artwork or have our in-house design team lay out the label. Every label gets a compliance review before the first run, and application runs on automated lines.
