To put the quantity in perspective, the US firm explained that one trillion average size capsules would form a line over 12 million miles long.
“Attaining this milestone is an amazing feat and is a testament to the strong position that Capsugel has in the pharmaceutical and dietary supplement industries,” said Ron Millender, vice president and general manager for Capsugel Americas.
“With quality and productivity gains and with the continued growth we see in capsule demand, we should reach our next trillion capsules in much less time than the 41 years it took to reach the first trillion.”
