Gelatin or Veggie — Which Capsule?

Gelatin capsules are the most popular choice — made from BSE-free bovine gelatin, they're economical and dissolve quickly. Veggie capsules (HPMC) contain no animal products, suiting vegan, vegetarian, halal and kosher needs. Both fill, lock and swallow the same way. Compare them below, or jump straight to gelatin capsules or veggie capsules for full specs.

Capsule Size Guide

Size #000 Capsule

Our biggest capsule — holds about 1g of powder (1.37ml). Pick 000 when you want the fewest capsules per dose. Easier to swallow than it looks for most adults.

Capsule Size Guide

Size #00 Capsule

The most popular size — holds about 735mg (0.91ml). The sweet spot between capacity and easy swallowing, and the default choice for herbal powders.

Capsule Size Guide

Size #0 Capsule

Holds about 500mg (0.68ml). A comfortable everyday size for smaller doses — the other crowd favourite alongside 00.

Capsule Size Guide

Size #1 Capsule

Holds about 400mg (0.50ml). A smaller, easy-swallow option for moderate doses, or for anyone who finds size 0 too large.

Capsule Size Guide

Size #2 Capsule

About 0.37ml capacity. Good for lower doses and easier swallowing — a popular choice for precise medication splitting.

Capsule Size Guide

Size #3 Capsule

About 0.30ml capacity. Small enough for children (with supervision) and most cats — a precise-dosing workhorse.

Capsule Size Guide

Size #4 Capsule

Our smallest — holds about 125mg (0.21ml). The go-to size for pets, children and micro-dosing.

Quick answers on buying, shipping and choosing the right capsule.

Buying & Shipping

Choosing Capsules

Where can I buy empty capsules in Australia?

Right here — we're an Australian online store dispatching from the Gold Coast, with fast shipping to every state. No pharmacy markups or tiny 100-packs: our capsules come in packs from 250 up to 40,000.

How fast is shipping?

Orders dispatch same business day from our Gold Coast warehouse. Standard shipping is $7.95 Australia-wide and free on orders over $99, with express available at checkout.

Can I buy in bulk or wholesale?

Yes — bulk gelatin and bulk veggie packs run from 5,000 up to 40,000 capsules, with per-capsule pricing that drops as quantity rises.

Do you sell to businesses and practitioners?

Absolutely. Naturopaths, supplement brands and contract manufacturers buy from us in bulk, and repeat-order arrangements are available — get in touch via our contact page.

Should I choose gelatin or veggie capsules?

Gelatin is the most economical and dissolves fastest — the default for most people. Choose veggie (HPMC) if you need vegan, vegetarian, halal or kosher. Both work identically with powders and filling machines.

What sizes do empty capsules come in?

Seven sizes, from 000 (about 1g capacity) down to 4 (about 125mg). Sizes 00 and 0 are the most popular. Our capsule size chart shows exact capacities for every size.

What can I fill them with?

Dry powders — herbs, spices like turmeric, vitamins, and medications (with your healthcare provider's guidance) — plus pure oils like fish oil or oregano oil. Anything containing water will dissolve the capsule.

Are your capsules certified?

Yes — every capsule comes from manufacturers certified to BRCGS Grade A+, Halal, Kosher and NSF GMP standards. Our gelatin is BSE-free bovine, and the veggie range is Vegan Society certified.
