The dream factory

 
  Roquette has tailor-made solutions for blue-sky production of ingredients

Roquette understands the needs of its customers for top-quality, reliable ingredients in the ever-changing world of the pharma industry. So, whether your business is formulation, granulation or simply making tablets taste better, this company has the answer.

Roquette is a long-established supplier of raw materials and excipients for the pharmaceuticals and cosmetics industries. Decades of close cooperation with customers have given the company a fundamental understanding of the constraints within which they have to operate. All the excipients and raw materials needed for the formulation of many dosage forms can be found in Roquette’s wide portfolio.

The organisation offers a full range of products: polymers for coating, diluents and fillers for tablets and capsules, disintegrants and superdisintegrants for tablets and capsules, binders for wet granulation, dissolution enhancers, bulk sweeteners for liquid and solid dosage forms – whatever the requirement, Roquette has the answer.

Natural products
The organisation develops ingredients and excipients from natural harvests such as wheat, maize, pea and potatoes and its product portfolio ranges from starches and sugars to speciality items including polyols and cyclodextrins.

LYCOAT film coating polymer and ReadiLYCOAT ready-touse coating systems allow tablets to be coated quickly and to a high standard. Moreover, LYCOAT film coating polymer has been shown to exhibit exceptional inertness, where other coating polymers have failed on this point.

Among other fillers and binders, the company offers the most extended range of polyols, including PEARLITOL mannitol, NEOSORB sorbitol powder and solution, SweetPearl maltitol, LYCASIN maltitol solution and XYLISORB xylitol. New grades have been introduced to fulfil the requirements of the industry and to offer a new range of applications. Attractive tablets with a pleasant taste and texture can be formulated easily with new directly compressible polyols, such as PEARLITOL Flash, SweetPearl P 300 DC, XYLISORB DC and NEOSORB P 150 DC and P 300 DC. High-quality chewable and orodispersible tablets have never been so easily produced. The GLYCOLYS range of superdisintegrants has been produced for more than 30 years and used successfully in many tablets and capsule formulations. Moreover, the LYCATAB range of binders offers a solution to wet granulation processes, whichever granulators are used.

Multifunctional excipients and compounded excipients have also been developed to match industry needs for simpler formulas. PEARLITOL Flash and StarLac are two such compounds, used for example in attractive orodispersible tablet formulas, and for nutraceutical purposes.

KLEPTOSE cyclodextrins are efficient solubilisation enhancers and taste-masking agents. A full range is available, from native to hydroxypropyl cyclodextrins, for use in many dosage forms, from solid to liquid.

Dedicated team
Roquette is particularly strong thanks to the outstanding capabilities of its Research and Innovation Department, which constantly develops innovative technologies and processes and regularly launches new products.

The company also has laboratories and pilot plants geared towards assisting customers with their formulations. All this and a dedicated team of specialists make Roquette your ideal innovation partner. Moreover, wherever they are located, customers can always be sure of the support they need thanks to the company’s worldwide presence through its state-of-the-art production plants and international network of subsidiary companies and agents.
