Fillers for direct compression: Enhance your process
Direct compression is fast becoming the method of choice for drug manufacturers striving for optimal process efficiencies – but true success depends on finding the right ingredients.
At Roquette, we offer an extensive range of products suitable for directly compressed formulations, offering good flowability, excellent compressibility and a specific particle size distribution to ensure uniform mixing. Our starches or starch compounds make swallowable and dispersible delivery forms possible.
