While there is still some time before the 2026 Lunar New Year, signs of preparation are already emerging in the pharmaceutical excipient industry. In view of the official statutory holidays for the 2026 Spring Festival falling on February 15 to February 23, renowned empty capsule brand KornnacCaps has fully initiated a forward-looking stockpiling strategy for the long holiday. The company aims to mitigate supply challenges posed by logistics stagnation and production halts during the extended break through advance warehousing and optimized production scheduling, thereby ensuring production stability for downstream pharmaceutical enterprises during the festival.
As a critical excipient in drug manufacturing, the continuity of the empty capsule supply chain directly impacts the production rhythm of pharmaceutical companies. According to the 2026 holiday schedule released by the State Council, the Spring Festival holiday spans nine days. Historical experience indicates that affected by the Spring Festival travel rush, logistics transport typically begins to slow down as early as a week before the holiday, and there is a Ramp-Up Period after work resumes. In response to the potential Logistics Vacuum during this window, the management of KornnacCaps, after prudent assessment, has decided to break the conventional stocking rhythm and significantly ramp up production efforts several months in advance.
This stockpiling initiative goes beyond merely pursuing quantity; KornnacCaps places greater emphasis on precise quality matching. The company's supply chain department has conducted targeted reserves of empty capsules of different models and specifications by aligning with the production schedules of major pharmaceutical enterprises for the first quarter of 2026. From the traceability of raw material intake to the high-standard quality inspection of finished products, every step strictly adheres to GMP standards. This ensures that the pre-stocked capsules are Zero-Defect in quality and provide a Seamless Connection in terms of timing.
In an interview, a spokesperson for KornnacCaps stated, "We are fully aware that pharmaceutical production lines Cannot Stop or Slow Down. During the Spring Festival holiday, although our production lines will rest in accordance with the statutory schedule, our supply guarantee to customers must not Break the Chain. Our current advance stockpiling is intended to provide a Reassurance for our customers, allowing them to enjoy the holiday with peace of mind."
Meanwhile, KornnacCaps also issued a warm reminder to its extensive partners: Given that February 15 to February 23, 2026, are statutory holidays, and logistics dispatch will gradually suspend in mid-February, it is recommended that pharmaceutical companies plan their purchase orders based on their own production schedules and strive to complete pick-up or arrange shipment before February 10. regarding emergency incremental demand before the holiday, the company will make every effort to coordinate resources to prioritize supply for strategic clients and excipients for urgently needed medications.
Planning for the future with foresight and countering the holiday with ample inventory. KornnacCaps' proactive preparations not only demonstrate the enterprise's robust supply chain coordination capabilities but also highlight its responsibility and commitment as an industry leader.
