Microencapsulation and Microspheres

Contract Manufacturing

In addition to providing microencapsulation and granulation formulation development services and manufacturing lab through production CAPEX equipment systems, we offer contract manufacturing of pharmaceuticals, nutraceuticals, industrial products, agricultural products, food, dairy, cosmetic, and consumer care products. There are many reasons why our microencapsulation contract manufacturing clients find these services helpful.  This enables us to help our clients bridge the temporary period of their microencapsulated product introduction without expending capital for equipment.  In the pharmaceutical industry it is beneficial that we can manufacture the appropriate biobatches required prior to final drug approvals.  In many cases, our clients contract us to permanently manufacture their microencapsulated products for them.

We manufacture microencapsulates in small, medium, and large scale campaigns (from gram quantities up through hundreds of tons of product per year), packed and shipped.

Conversion of oil based products into water soluble (bioavailable) products, we employ microencapsulation techniques developed in the pharmaceutical industry so that these actives are converted for better absorption. The ultimate products can take the forms of water soluble powders, muscle sprays, oral films, or even nasal sprays. We utilize our facilities located across the USA to help our clients develop their products from formulation development, through initial sample generation, pilot scale and production scale. One of the several methods we utilize is our spray drying expertise developed over decades of applied application.


Dedicated Microsphere Toll Unit operations can be implemented to produce customer products where the volumes are large enough.

To produce even small quantities of microencapsulates at competitive prices, we can offer multiple small batches per year.

The range of microencapsulation capabilities includes a variety of applications from chemical/industrial, cosmetic, food or nutra applications through pharmaceutical applications which require full cGMP facilities and many microencapsulation applications which fall between these extremes.
