Kapselzak

Kapselzak is a term of Dutch origin that translates literally to "capsule bag" or "capsule pouch." It refers to a small, often cylindrical or oval-shaped container designed to hold and protect individual capsules, such as those containing medication, vitamins, or even small electronic components. These containers are typically made from durable materials like plastic, metal, or sometimes leather or fabric for more decorative or specialized purposes.

The primary function of a kapselzak is to provide a secure and organized way to store and transport capsules. This is particularly useful for individuals who need to take medication at specific times throughout the day, or for those who travel frequently and wish to keep their supplements or medications readily accessible. The compact size of a kapselzak makes it easy to carry in a pocket, purse, or travel bag.

Kapselzakken can vary widely in their design and features. Some are simple, open-top pouches, while others incorporate secure closures like zippers, snaps, or magnetic clasps to prevent accidental spillage. More elaborate designs might include multiple compartments for separating different types of capsules or even features like small mirrors or pill crushers. The term is not exclusive to pharmaceutical use and can also be applied to containers used for storing small, capsule-shaped items in other contexts, such as for crafting supplies or small electronic parts.
