Application parameters
Starting parameters for your coater
Indicative settings by pan size. Final parameters are confirmed against your tablet core, batch size and coating equipment during trials.
Rglax Coat film coating
Tablet bed and inlet temperatures are given as aqueous over non-aqueous (AQ / NAQ). Settings are indicative and confirmed against your core during trials.

Common questions
What is a ready-mix tablet coating material?
A single blend that you disperse in water or in solvent and spray. Everything the film needs is already in the blend, so your plant is not weighing and mixing individual polymers and pigments before every batch, and the film you qualified is the film you get on the next order.
Do you match a shade to our existing tablet?
Yes. Shade is matched against a reference sample you send us rather than against a shade card, and it is confirmed before the batch is released. That way a repeat order reproduces the finish you approved.
Can we get a trial quantity before committing to an order?
Yes. Trial quantities go out with the application parameters for your pan size, so the first batch is not a guess. Trial material is supplied for evaluation, and the parameters are then confirmed against your batch size during scale-up.
Which of your grades need a solvent process?
The metallic and pearl series, the moisture barrier grades, the sugar film coat and the non-aqueous film coats all run on solvent. The aqueous film coats and ECM-RP348 run on water. UZ1 runs on either, which is why units with mixed lines hold it.
Where are you located and who do you supply?
Our works are at Plot No. 30, Industrial Area Tahliwal, Tehsil Haroli, Distt. Una 174507, Himachal Pradesh, inside the pharmaceutical belt running through Baddi and Barotiwala. We supply solid dosage manufacturers across India.
