With DC granules, Dr. Paul Lohmann® manufactures a product line that is ideally suited for direct tableting for pharmaceutical applications and food supplements.
These directly compressible granules based on Calcium, Magnesium, Iron and Zinc Salts simplify tablet production thanks to their special properties, such as improved flowability and reduced dust formation. Decreased energy, labor, and capital costs as well as the increase in overall product stability are just some of the other benefits.
In wet granulation, physically solid and larger granules are formed from fine or coarse powders by adding a granulating liquid (water with or without binder). Proven binders for granules with good flowability and good printing properties are maltodextrin (M), corn starch (S), polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) (P), citric acid (CA) and gum arabic (GA).
The use of micronized raw materials takes our DC granules to the next level, enhancing both manufacturing performance and consumer experience. This advanced refinement improves compressibility, uniformity, and flow, while also delivering excellent sensory experience —a key factor for direct sticks, chewables, and other orally consumed dosage forms.
