Galenic Forms

Lozenges taste good and are the ideal galenic form for the treatment of infections of the upper respiratory system: from a sore throat, infection of the mouth or respiratory area, to a cough. The active ingredients contained in the lozenge are slowly absorbed by the mucosa.

For our lozenges, high-quality herbal and fruit concentrates, vitamins and minerals are added after the cooking and vacuum processes. This fully retains the natural and pharmacological effect of the ingredients. Calcium, echinacea or sage – these and many other additive options are possible, including in organic quality, kosher, or sugar-free. We make it possible.

The individual components of the basic mass are electronically weighed and then added to the cooking system, where they are thickened in a vacuum. The resulting mass is then transferred into a mixing container, where flavouring and colouring agents are added. Phytopharmaceuticals and active pharmaceutical ingredients as well as essential oils are precisely added, controlled and documented with the use of a computer system.

With our qualified and verified state-of-the-art equipment and the validated production techniques, we can ensure and verify exact doses throughout the entire production process. At the end of the process, the mass is cooled down and the lozenges are stamped into their final shape.

Soft pastilles and jellies are a very popular galenic form in the pharmaceutical industry and the food industry. They are organoleptically stimulating and suitable for adding active ingredients.

In our soft pastilles and jellies we add valuable fruit concentrates, herb concentrates, vitamins, minerals or active pharmaceutical ingredients. The natural and pharmaceutical effects of the single ingredients are contained. Zinc, Vitamine B12 or CBD – these and many more ingredients in various flavorings are possible – also vegan, organic, kosher or sugar-free.

The individual components of the basic mass for soft pastilles and jellies are electronically weighed and then added to the cooking system, where they are thickened in a vacuum. Depending on your selection, different thickening agents are added. These can be a vegan basis, gelatin, gum arabic or pectin.

Natural colouring agents or herbal concentrates are carefully added to the resulting fruit concentrates. Phytopharmaceuticals and active pharmaceutical ingredients as well as essential oils are precisely added, controlled and documented with the use of a computer system.

With our qualified and verified state-of-the-art equipment and the validated production techniques, we can ensure and verify exact doses throughout the entire production process. We comply with the requirements of a homogeneous distribution of the active ingredient (uniformity of content). The mass is then poured into a diverse range of shapes to produce soft pastilles and jellies – for example: smileys, hearts, faces or crocodiles. The soft pastilles and jellies are then dried in a specially air-conditioned room.

Instant products are designed according to the desired application during product development. The selection of the best herbs as well as the definition of their quality starts in the field and is documented from there. The verification of herb purity and the lack of pesticides and contaminations are guaranteed by the long-lasting cooperation with specialists. No tea is purer than instant tea, thereby also complying with the quality standards. Having continuously developed the process, we are able to combine the effect of a cup of tea in three grams of instant tea granules.

This galenic form is very suitable for babies and children due to its high purity, as well as for hot drinks as relief from a cough or sore throat. It is also suitable for enjoying as ice tea or hot punch. Hot or cold, the granules are instantly soluble, providing an aromatic and natural taste experience.

Our granulating and instantisation processes are extremely gentle, environmentally friendly and natural, since we can consciously avoid any additives and auxiliary materials. Pure herb extracts or fruit concentrates are carefully refined with flavouring ingredients and carriers. The main ingredients are blended together.

Herbs, fruits or active ingredients are added gently to this mass and controlled. After these ingredients have also been mixed, the mass can be used as a powder or granulated. The short and gentle drying method preserves all the active ingredients and flavours, which release their effect when dissolved in cold or hot water.

Even after 60 years of our discovery of the technique for manufacturing granules – the process of instantisation – we are continuously improving it to always be a step ahead of the evolving standards.

Fast-melting and compressed tablets have been offered by the pharmacy and food retailers for quite some time now. The active ingredients reach the body quickly through direct dissolution and absorption by the mucosa. For fast-melting and compressed tablets, there is a wide range of shapes and ingredients available.

The most well-known type of fast-melting tablets are fruity dextrose tablets that provide an instant energy kick. Breath-freshening and vitamin tablets expand the range in the form of compressed tablets. Sherbet tablets for children are also still a trend. Fast-melting and compressed tablets provide energy and refreshment for your customers. Whether sugar-free based on xylitol or sorbitol, or a combination – we can help you here.

In the case of both types of products, additional excipients like natural flavours, colours and active ingredients or extracts are added to the main ingredients. The mass is then pressed into different shapes with different degrees of hardness.
