Advantages for Manufacturing

 

Improve quality - Film coatings enhance the integrity of soft or friable tablets allowing improvement in subsequent unit operations.

Improve safety - Film coated tablets reduce operator exposure to excipient dust and small particles of active substances.

Improve operational efficiency - The surface characteristics of film coated tablets will enhance the utility of single station or multi-station printing machinery.  The flow properties of film coated tablets will advance the speed of bottle and blister package filling operations reducing the cost of the entire process. Machinery free of dust created from uncoated tablets is easier and less time consuming to clean.

Improve profits - Film coatings will reduce the amount of product damaged during packaging and improve the yield of saleable goods.
