The Capsule Machine was invented by a man called Howard in 1973. This original design then went on to spawn many different types of Capsule filling machine and has proved to be an effective home solution to taking powdered herbs.  We support this company as they regularly donate to charity and make effective easy to use products.

Our Vegetarian capsules are made from Pullulan. Pullulan is a biopolymer with unique properties. It is a polysaccharide produced by the fermentation of carbohydrate (starch/sugar) by the ubiquitous fungus Aureobasidium pullulans. Chemically, it consists of repeated unit of maltotriose units where three glucose units in maltotriose are connected by an alpha-1,4 glycosidic bond and consecutive maltotriose units are connected to each other by an alpha-1,6 glycosidic bond. This typical linkage pattern in fact render some distinctive physical traits which are different from many known polysaccharide. One interesting characteristic is its high adhesevity that leads to the formation of strong films with very low oxygen permeability. Pullulan is a white to off white powder and is flavourless, odourless and extremely stable. It is non toxic and non immunogenic in nature and readily dissolves in water.
