How Encapsulated Products Are Made: From Premium Raw Material Selection to Sustainable Packaging

Step 1: Premium Raw Material Selection

Everything starts with the quality of the ingredients. Whether your formula includes fish oil, plant-based nutrients, botanicals, or minerals, the effectiveness of your finished product depends heavily on premium raw material selection.

At Icelandirect, we:

• Source human- and pet-grade ingredients from trusted global suppliers

• Conduct in-house and third-party testing for purity, potency, and contaminants

• Ensure full traceability from source to shelf

• Prioritize sustainably harvested marine oils, organic botanicals, and clean-label formulations

This commitment to raw material quality lays a strong foundation for encapsulated products that are safe, effective, and market-ready.

Step 2: The Advanced Encapsulation Process

Once raw materials pass quality checks, they’re ready for encapsulation. This is where science and precision come together. Our advanced encapsulation process ensures consistency, stability, and optimal bioavailability.

We offer multiple capsule formats:

• Softgels (ideal for oils and fat-soluble nutrients like Omega-3s)

• Hard capsules (gelatin or vegetarian-based for dry powders and blends)

• Enteric-coated capsules (for targeted release in the digestive tract)

• Two-piece capsules for custom-blended powders

Our encapsulation lines are:

• GMP- and NSF-certified

• Equipped with automated systems for high-volume runs

• Engineered for low-oxygen, low-heat environments to protect sensitive actives

• Flexible for both custom formulations and popular stock formulas

Whether you’re developing a new supplement line or scaling up production, Icelandirect delivers precision with every batch.

Step 3: Sustainable & Efficient Packaging Solutions

Packaging does more than protect the product — it’s a core part of your brand’s identity and environmental footprint. We take a modern, eco-conscious approach to packaging by offering sustainable and efficient packaging solutions that balance functionality with responsibility.

Options include:

• Recyclable bottles and jars (PET, glass, HDPE)

• Compostable pouches and eco-friendly labeling

• BPA-free materials that meet consumer safety expectations

• Tamper-evident seals and moisture-resistant closures

• Shelf-ready packaging designs with customizable branding

We also support full-service labeling, fulfillment, and warehousing, allowing you to focus on sales and marketing while we manage the logistics.
