CoQ10 Capsule Manufacturer for Your Brand
Source CoQ10 capsules from a GMP-certified plant in Guangdong. We handle 1,000-unit MOQs, 7-10 day samples, and 20-35 day production. Vegan, halal, and organic grades available.

Overview
CoQ10 is a sensitive ingredient. Heat, oxygen, and light degrade it quickly. As a contract manufacturer, we formulate CoQ10 capsules with carrier oils and antioxidants to protect potency. Our facility runs encapsulation lines for softgels and two-piece capsules. We test raw material and finished goods for assay, microbials, and heavy metals. This page covers our CoQ10 capsule capabilities, formulation options, and quality controls.

CoQ10 Encapsulation Capacity and Formats
Our plant runs softgel and two-piece capsule lines. For CoQ10, softgels are common because the oil-based fill protects the ingredient. We produce softgels from 150 mg to 1,200 mg fill weight. Two-piece capsules suit powder or beadlet formats. Line capacity reaches 500,000 capsules per day across shifts. We can run small pilot batches of 1,000 units for stability testing before you commit to full production.
Lead times depend on format. Softgels need 7-10 days for samples due to gel drying and curing. Two-piece capsules can be sampled in 5-7 days. Mass production runs 20-35 working days after you approve the sample and packaging. We handle bottle filling, induction sealing, and labelling. If you need blister packs or sachets, we can quote those separately.
Formulating CoQ10 for Stability and Absorption
CoQ10 is lipophilic and poorly water-soluble. We use carrier oils like MCT, olive, or flaxseed to improve dispersion. Adding natural vitamin E or rosemary extract slows oxidation. For enhanced absorption, we can incorporate piperine or use a self-emulsifying system. We also offer ubiquinol, the reduced form, which is more sensitive and requires nitrogen flushing during encapsulation.
Dosage typically ranges from 50 mg to 300 mg per capsule. We can combine CoQ10 with other ingredients such as omega-3, vitamin D3, or resveratrol. Our formulation team checks compatibility and stability. Every batch is tested for assay at release. We provide a certificate of analysis for each production lot. For vegan claims, we use HPMC or pullulan capsules and plant-derived carriers.
Quality Control and Certifications for CoQ10
Our facility is GMP-certified and holds ISO 22000 and HACCP. We test raw CoQ10 for identity, potency, and heavy metals. Finished capsules are tested for microbial limits, disintegration, and weight variation. We retain samples for stability studies at 25°C/60% RH and 40°C/75% RH. These studies support a 24-month shelf life. We can provide documentation for your regulatory filings.
For halal, organic, or vegan certifications, we source ingredients from approved suppliers and maintain chain-of-custody records. Our team assists with export documentation for the US, EU, UK, and Middle East. We ship FOB Shenzhen or Yantian. Air freight samples arrive in 3-5 days. Sea freight for mass production takes 15-30 days depending on destination.
Quality Control and Batch Documentation
Every CoQ10 capsule batch is tested at three stages: incoming raw material, in-process blend, and finished goods. Raw CoQ10 is assayed for identity and potency by HPLC, with a specification of 98.0 to 101.0 percent CoQ10. Microbial testing covers total aerobic count, yeast and mould, E. coli, and Salmonella. Heavy metals (lead, arsenic, cadmium, mercury) are tested against EU and US pharmacopoeial limits. Each test is logged with the batch number and analyst initials.
Finished capsules are tested for assay, uniformity of weight, disintegration, and microbials. Disintegration for softgels typically runs 15 to 30 minutes in purified water at 37 degrees Celsius. If you require enteric or delayed-release, we run a two-hour acid resistance test. Retention samples of every batch are held for the full shelf life plus six months. Stability testing follows ICH Q1A conditions: 25 degrees Celsius at 60 percent relative humidity for 24 months, with accelerated conditions at 40 degrees Celsius and 75 percent relative humidity for six months.
The certificate of analysis (COA) issued with each batch lists batch number, manufacture date, expiry date, fill weight, assay result, microbial results, heavy metals, disintegration time, and a statement of conformity to the agreed specification. We also provide a specification sheet and a material safety data sheet (MSDS) on request. If your market requires a free-sale certificate, we can arrange it through the local authority; lead time is typically 10 to 15 working days.
Packaging, Labelling and Retail Readiness
We fill CoQ10 capsules into HDPE bottles (30, 60, 90, 120, or 180 counts), blister packs (10 or 12 capsules per blister, up to 10 blisters per carton), stick packs (single capsule per stick), or sachets. Bottles can include induction seals, desiccant sachets, and child-resistant closures. We label according to your artwork or provide a template that includes the FDA dietary-supplement label elements: supplement facts panel, serving size, amount per serving, percent daily value, other ingredients, and allergen statements.
Lot and expiry coding is applied by inkjet or laser on the bottle base, label, and carton. We use a Julian date code or your preferred format. Cartons are specified with dimensions, board grade, and pallet pattern. Standard pallet is 1,200 by 1,000 mm, with a maximum height of 1,800 mm including pallet. For Amazon FNSKU and retail compliance, we can print and apply FNSKU labels, poly-bag with suffocation warning, and pack in Amazon-ready cartons with correct weight and dimension data.
MOQ, Lead Times and Delivery
The MOQ for CoQ10 capsules is 1,000 units per SKU for retail bottling. Pilot runs of 500 to 1,000 units are possible with a surcharge. Samples take 7 to 10 working days after formulation approval and artwork receipt. Mass production runs 20 to 35 working days after sample approval, depending on capsule type and packaging complexity. Softgels typically require 25 to 35 working days; two-piece capsules 20 to 30 working days.
We ship by air or sea. Air freight to the US or EU takes 5 to 10 days door to door; sea freight takes 25 to 40 days port to port. We offer EXW, FOB, and DDP terms. For DDP, we handle customs clearance and duties to your door. Documents provided with each shipment include commercial invoice, packing list, COA, MSDS, and free-sale certificate where required. Phytosanitary certificates are not applicable for CoQ10 capsules as they contain no plant material, but we can provide a certificate of origin.
