Softgel capsule manufacturing represents the apex of lipophilic ingredient delivery. For pharmaceutical distributors, private label supplement brands, and retail networks operating within Mexico City (CDMX) and the Valley of Mexico region, selecting a contract manufacturing partner requires far more than basic powder blending capability. Softgels require precise thermomechanical control during ribbon formation, precise fill injection, and automated rotary die encapsulation.
Our manufacturing complex utilizes state-of-the-art continuous encapsulation lines operating under strictly controlled ISO Class 8 cleanroom environments. By suspending hydrophobic active ingredients—such as Omega-3 fatty acids, CoQ10, Vitamin D3/K2, lipid-bound herbal extracts (Peruvian Maca, Curcumin), and liposomal multivitamins—inside specialized lipid carrier matrix systems, we overcome traditional intestinal absorption barriers.
Over 30 years of continuous cGMP contract manufacturing experience, featuring fully integrated in-house analytical laboratories and complete regulatory compliance packages.
Operated strictly under FDA 21 CFR Part 111 cGMP protocols with European Conformity (CE) compliance. Every batch produced is supported by exhaustive Master Batch Records (MBR) and auditing documentation designed to streamline regulatory review.
Unlike standard contract blenders that outsource quality verification, our Hauppauge, New York facility houses state-of-the-art analytical (HPLC, GC-MS, FTIR) and microbiological testing laboratories. We perform raw material identity verification, assay potency testing, and heavy metal screening on-site.
We supply complete documentation packages tailored for Latin American entry, including Certificate of Free Sale (CFS), Certificate of Analysis (COA), BSE/TSE-Free declarations, Allergen Statements, and Kosher/Halal validations for seamless customs clearance.
Our team of PhD formulation chemists and food scientists assist in designing custom softgel profiles. We resolve bitter botanical off-tastes, stabilize volatile oil actives, and adjust fill densities to fit micro-capsule sizes without compromising target potency.
To meet the rapid surge in vegetarian consumer demand across North and South America, we manufacture non-animal Tapioca starch and Pectin-based vegetarian softgel shells, offering non-GMO, gluten-free, and clean-label compliance.
From automated blister packaging (Alu-Alu, PVC/PVDC) ideal for pharmacy shelf stability in humid climates to wide-mouth HDPE bottles, amber glass, gusseted pouches, and custom branded folding cartons ready for retail deployment.
Standardized parameters for private label manufacturing, quality parameters, and regulatory compliance metrics.

How our contract softgel formulations serve specific commercial distribution channels across the Valley of Mexico metro area.
Mexico City represents one of the largest metropolitan consumer markets for healthcare, wellness, and pharmaceutical dietary supplements in Latin America. Brand owners deploying products in districts such as Polanco, Santa Fe, Condesa, Coyoacán, and Reforma require specialized packaging and high-potency formulations tailored to local buyer expectations.
Strategic market insights to help brand owners formulate products that align with current purchasing habits in Greater Mexico City.
Mexican consumers are increasingly educating themselves on ingredient absorption. Traditional hard-shell powders are being replaced by liposomal Vitamin C, Vitamin D3/K2 oil drops in softgels, and CoQ10 suspended in extra virgin olive oil or medium-chain triglyceride (MCT) oil for enhanced cellular uptake.
With rising urban stress levels in Mexico City, adaptogenic lipid complexes containing high-strength Peruvian Red and Yellow Maca extract, Ashwagandha oil extract, and Curcumin lipids are experiencing double-digit annual sales growth in physical and digital retail channels.
Urban pet owners in CDMX prioritize premium pet nutrition. We manufacture specialized veterinary softgels featuring wild Alaskan salmon oil, digestive probiotics, and anal gland support extracts formulated with palatable natural poultry and beef flavorings.
Everything you need to know about COFEPRIS compliance, CE certification, freight shipping, and custom contract softgel manufacturing.
While CE certification primarily denotes compliance with European Union safety, health, and environmental protection standards, it is recognized globally by Mexican sourcing managers and distributor chains as a gold standard of quality control. When importing softgels into Mexico City, having CE and FDA cGMP credentials speeds up commercial due diligence and instills retail consumer trust.
We provide full export documentation required by Mexican customs agents (Agentes Aduanales) and the Federal Commission for the Protection against Sanitary Risks (COFEPRIS). This includes batch-specific Certificates of Analysis (COA), Certificate of Free Sale (CFS), cGMP Compliance Certificates, BSE/TSE-Free declarations, and full quantitative and qualitative ingredient statements adhering to NOM-051-SCFI/SSA1-2010 labeling guidelines.
Mexico City sits at 2,240 meters above sea level, where atmospheric pressure is significantly lower than coastal ports. Softgels filled at sea level can expand during transit, testing seam strength. We utilize heavy-duty rotary encapsulation dies, strict ribbon thickness monitoring (±0.001 inches), and controlled gelatin drying cycles to produce high-seam-bursting-strength softgels built for altitude variations.
Standard custom softgel encapsulation runs begin at 300,000 to 500,000 capsules depending on die size, fill complexity, and ingredient costs. For stock formulas or white-label programs, lower minimums are available to help growing Mexican brands test new SKUs in the CDMX market before scaling.
Yes. We offer continuous vegetarian softgel production using modified non-GMO tapioca starch and seaweed-derived carrageenan/pectin shell matrix options. These vegetarian softgels offer superior thermal stability up to 60°C, making them ideal for shipping through hot Mexican customs corridors without sticking or clumping.
Every single batch undergoes rigorous testing in our on-site analytical laboratory. We test raw materials upon quarantine entry, monitor fill weights in real-time during encapsulation, and conduct final release testing for potency (HPLC assay), heavy metals (ICP-MS), microbial contaminants (USP <2021/2022>), and disintegration time (USP <701>). Every lot ships with a certified COA.
Initial custom formulation and pilot batch approval typically require 2 to 3 weeks. Once raw materials and packaging components are locked, full-scale production, analytical release testing, and packaging completion take approximately 4 to 6 weeks. Air freight directly to Benito Juárez International Airport (MEX) takes 2-4 days, while ocean freight via Veracruz takes 10-14 days.
