Finding quality capsules in Australia was harder than it should have been
Most suppliers catered to commercial manufacturers with huge minimum orders and wholesale-only access. We saw a growing community of Australians who wanted to make their own supplements, capsule their own herbs, or give medications to pets — without the markup and red tape of industrial suppliers.
So we built Buy Empty Capsules to serve them. We work directly with our manufacturers to ensure consistent pharmaceutical-grade quality across every batch. From a single product on the Gold Coast to Australia's widest consumer capsule range, we've grown to serve customers across every state and territory — because once people start making their own capsules, they keep coming back.
Founded on the Gold Coast
Buy Empty Capsules launches after finding no quality consumer source for empty capsules in Australia. First shipment of pharmaceutical-grade gelatin capsules arrives direct from certified manufacturers.
Vegetarian Range Launched
Responding to strong demand from the plant-based community, BEC launches its full range of HPMC vegetarian capsules — vegan, halal, and kosher certified across all seven sizes.
Filling Machines & Accessories
The accessories range launches — filling machines, precision micro scales, funnels, storage jars, and complete DIY supplement kits. Everything needed to fill capsules at home.
Bulk & Specialty Capsules
Bulk quantities up to 140,000 capsules added for practitioners and small businesses. Enteric-coated capsules and chicken-flavoured pet capsules join the range.
