Colorcon Inc. has announced a new process development for sugar coated pharmaceutical tablets with the launch of Opadry SGR, Rapid Sugar Film Coating System.    

 

The company is a leader in the development, supply, and technical support of specialty ingredients; formulated film coating systems, modified release technologies, and functional excipients for the pharmaceutical industry. 

 

Colorcon says this new system delivers a more streamlined application process, reducing coating time from days to hours and improving manufacturing safety through the elimination of organic solvents. Although sugar coating is less frequently included in new product development, it is still a preferred way of finishing pharmaceutical products in many areas of the world, especially where less automated equipment is prevelant. 

 

Dr Daniel To, product development manager at Colorcon Inc., said, “Colorcon carried out extensive research and development to create a convenient, easy to prepare, high-gloss sugar film coating system that  delivers speed and flexibility to the coating process. Using similar ingredients to traditional sugar coating means an existing marketed product could easily be converted, saving real time costs; and new products in development can utilize a more expeditious manufacturing process”.

 

This latest innovation demonstrates Colorcon’s leadership in bringing to market film coating systems with improved convenience marked by speed and efficiency, cost savings and dependable performance.
