Additional Service of Tableting & Encapsulation

Formulation & Blending

Formulation and blending are essential stages in the development of food ingredients and finished nutritional products. The process involves combining multiple components in carefully controlled proportions to achieve the required flavor, texture, nutritional profile, stability, and processing performance.

Development typically begins with formulation research, ingredient compatibility evaluation, and ratio optimization. During production, raw materials are blended under controlled conditions to ensure consistent distribution and batch-to-batch uniformity.

Appropriate blending equipment and process parameters are selected according to the characteristics of the ingredients, including particle size, density, moisture sensitivity, and flowability. The objective is to produce a stable and homogeneous formulation that meets product specifications, manufacturing requirements, regulatory standards, and market expectations.

Agglomeration & Microencapsulation

Agglomeration is a particle-engineering process in which fine particles are combined to form larger, more uniform granules. It can improve powder flowability, reduce dust, enhance dispersibility, and support more consistent handling during production.

Agglomerated powders are commonly used in instant beverage powders, nutritional blends, and other applications requiring rapid dispersion or improved solubility. By optimizing particle size and structure, the process can also improve processing efficiency and the overall consumer experience.

Microencapsulation involves surrounding small particles, droplets, or active compounds with a protective coating. This technology can help protect sensitive ingredients from moisture, oxygen, light, heat, and interactions with other components during processing and storage.

Depending on the formulation design, microencapsulation may also support controlled release, taste masking, odor reduction, improved stability, and better incorporation of active ingredients into finished products. It is widely applied to vitamins, minerals, flavors, oils, botanical extracts, probiotics, and other functional ingredients.

Tableting & Encapsulation

Tableting and capsule filling are widely used methods for converting nutritional ingredients into convenient finished dosage forms.

Capsules can help isolate ingredients from the external environment and reduce direct interaction between incompatible components. They are suitable for powders, granules, oils, and selected liquid formulations, depending on the capsule type and product requirements.

Tablets are commonly used because they provide good physical stability, accurate dosing, efficient production, and flexible product design. Excipients may be added to improve compression, flowability, disintegration, coating performance, and overall product stability.

Tablet shape, size, hardness, appearance, and dissolution characteristics can be adjusted according to the formulation and intended application. For products requiring relatively high ingredient content per serving, tablets may also provide an efficient and cost-effective delivery format.

Through appropriate formulation development, process selection, and quality control, tableting and encapsulation can help transform functional ingredients into stable, consistent, and market-ready finished products.
