RGLAX PHARMARglax Coat

Moisture Barrier Coating

Solvent base moisture barrier film coats built for the actives that actually fail on moisture, rather than one barrier grade sold for everything.

What this range covers

Rglax Coat offers high performance moisture barrier film coating to protect the tablet from light, moisture and environmental gases. It is a fully formulated HPMC and PVA based immediate release system with high productivity, low impurity levels and a superior tablet finish. Tablets coated with Rglax Coat MB and AMB exhibit a high gloss, quality appearance with well defined logos.

Actives covered by grades in this range

  • Amoxycillin and Clavulanate potassium
  • Amoxycillin
  • Multivitamins
  • Ferrous group
