Coating material for pharmaceutical manufacture
For units working under the Drugs and Cosmetics Act, and for export oriented plants supplying regulated markets.
Why it matters
Pharmaceutical work carries the tightest requirements of the three industries we supply. Release profile has to be demonstrated rather than asserted, the coating has to survive stability at the zone you are testing to, and an export oriented unit will be asked for documentation that domestic supply never needs. The enteric and sustained release grades exist almost entirely for this segment.
Running it
Come to us with the active, the strength and the dissolution specification you are working to. That is enough for us to name a grade, and it is usually not enough for a supplier who only knows the shade you want.
