THE TRAILBLAZER

Best formulations pioneered plant-based softgel manufacturing starting in 2006 when we became the first certified US facility to commercialize a softgel using non animal-based seaweed extract. That experience and long history with these unique softgels has enabled us to perfect the process and do it more cost effectively than anyone else.

THE LEADER

Today, we are the largest manufacturer of plant-based softgels producing hundreds of millions of vegetarian softgels per year. We can encapsulate a wide array of formulas in a large assortment of sizes and shapes, and can even provide scented options.

THE INNOVATOR

We refuse to rest on past success and are continually innovating our capabilities and pushing the bar higher. We have demonstrated success with some of the most difficult formulas and have succeeded in encapsulating ingredients and formulas that other manufacturers are either unable to do or routinely struggle to get right.
