Hongkang Capsule Launches Hangzhou Smart Unmanned Base, Paving the Way for ESG Excellence in Pharmaceutical Packaging


We’re pleased to share that the Hongkang Biomedical Headquarters & Production Base Project (Land Plot No. Hangqiantang Gongchu [2025] No.24) was publicly announced by the Hangzhou Municipal Bureau of Planning and Natural Resources on January 27, 2026. Situated in Zhejiang’s China Pharmaceutical Port Town, this initiative marks a pivotal step in our global strategy for smart, sustainable hard capsule production.


Based in China Pharmaceutical Port Town—home to over 1,800 biopharmaceutical enterprises, including global giants like Pfizer, Merck, Bayer, Lilly, Johnson & Johnson, Abbott, plus 34 "Quasi-Unicorn" enterprises and 29 innovation platforms—Hongkang will leverage the cluster’s robust ecosystem to accelerate technological advancement in hard capsule manufacturing.
Core highlights of the new base:
  • Total GFA of 37,952.77 ㎡, equipped with 32 fully automated production lines
  • End-to-end unmanned operations, covering gelatin, HPMC, pullulan polysaccharide and targeted hard capsules
  • Scheduled for mass production in 2028, with an annual capacity exceeding 400 billion units post-commissioning


As a leader in China’s hard capsule industry—with Zhejiang contributing 42% of the nation’s total output (industry data)—Hongkang is dedicated to building a world-class smart and green production hub. This "lights-out factory" will boost production efficiency while elevating sustainability, aligning with global ESG priorities in the pharmaceutical sector.


We aim to set a new benchmark for ESG practices in pharmaceutical health, delivering high-quality, reliable hard capsule solutions to global partners and driving the industry’s sustainable growth.
