Size 1 Empty Gelatin Capsules – Pack of 100

This pack contains 100 empty gelatin capsules in size 1, offering a compact option for filling with suitable powdered ingredients. Their smaller format makes them easier to swallow than larger capsule sizes and provides greater flexibility when preparing smaller quantities. Each capsule has an approximate capacity of 200–275 mg, depending on the density, dryness and grind of the material being used.

Why Choose Size 1 Capsules?

Size 1 capsules are a practical choice when a smaller capsule format is preferred.

• Compact design – Smaller than size 0 capsules and convenient for everyday use.
• Easy to swallow – The reduced dimensions may be more comfortable for people who find larger capsules difficult to take.
• Flexible filling capacity – Suitable for smaller quantities of compatible powdered ingredients.
• Convenient storage – Their standard format makes them easy to organise in suitable capsule storage containers.
• Versatile application – Suitable for a variety of non-controlled, legally permitted powdered ingredients.

Actual filling capacity varies according to the density, moisture content and particle size of the material. The stated values are approximate and should be treated as general reference figures rather than guaranteed fill weights.

Practical Benefits

The size 1 format provides a useful middle ground between very small and larger capsules. Its relatively compact dimensions make it suitable for users who prefer a discreet, easy-to-handle capsule.

The actual amount that fits inside each capsule will depend on the material being used. Powders with different densities can occupy the same volume while having significantly different weights, so filling by volume should not be assumed to provide a specific weight.

For precise preparation, use an appropriate calibrated scale and follow the instructions applicable to the particular ingredient.

Filling and Handling

These capsules are supplied empty and should only be filled with substances that are legal and appropriate for encapsulation.

When preparing capsules:

1. Ensure your hands, equipment and working surface are clean and dry.
2. Separate the capsule body from the cap carefully.
3. Fill the capsule with the intended compatible ingredient.
4. Close the capsule securely by pressing the two sections together.
5. Store finished capsules in a suitable, sealed container away from moisture, heat and direct sunlight.

Do not fill capsules with substances that are unsuitable for oral consumption or with materials whose legal status is uncertain.

Storage

• Keep unused capsules in their original packaging or another clean, airtight container. Protect them from excessive humidity, heat and direct sunlight.
• Gelatin capsules can become soft in damp conditions or brittle when exposed to excessive dryness, so stable room-temperature storage is recommended.
• Keep out of reach of children.
