Why We Use HPMC Vegan Capsules – Benefits for Your Health and the Planet

HPMC vegan capsules with plant leaves, highlighting their vegan, cruelty-free, and allergen-free benefits.

What Are HPMC Vegan Capsules?

HPMC (Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose) capsules are made from plant-derived cellulose, often sourced from pine or spruce trees. They are 100% free from animal products, making them perfect for vegans, vegetarians, and anyone avoiding gelatin.


Why We Choose HPMC Over Gelatin Capsules

1. Vegan & Vegetarian Friendly

Gelatin capsules come from animal by-products, but HPMC is fully plant-based, making it suitable for all diets.

2. Allergen-Free and Hypoallergenic

HPMC capsules contain no gluten, soy, dairy, or common allergens — perfect for sensitive individuals.

3. Cruelty-Free and Ethical

No animals are harmed in the making of HPMC capsules, aligning with our commitment to ethical, cruelty-free supplements.

4. Better Protection for Active Ingredients

HPMC capsules offer enhanced stability for moisture-sensitive ingredients like herbal extracts, probiotics, and vitamins, helping preserve potency.

5. Neutral Taste and Smell

HPMC capsules have no strong taste or odour, ensuring a clean, pleasant experience.
