Gelatin

Gelatin is a natural, protein-based material obtained mainly from the skin, bones, and connective tissues of animals. In the pharmaceutical industry, it is highly valued as a safe and effective excipient due to its distinctive functional properties, such as gelling, binding, stabilizing, and film-forming. Its versatility lies in the ability to form gels with different strengths and viscosities, combined with its protein-rich nature, which enhances both formulation performance and compatibility. As a multifunctional excipient, gelatin plays a vital role in various dosage forms, including capsule shells, tablet binding, and coating technologies. It directly contributes to the stability of formulations, improves the bioavailability of active ingredients, and enhances patient compliance by enabling user-friendly drug delivery systems. Our company is dedicated to the research, development, and production of pharmaceutical-grade gelatin. With strict adherence to international quality standards, we offer customized solutions for different applications and dosage forms, ensuring consistent performance, safety, and reliability in pharmaceutical manufacturing.

Our Products

We produce and supply pharmaceutical gelatin for different applications, meeting the requirements of biocompatibility, biodegradability, controlled endotoxin levels, and batch-to-batch consistency. Currently, our gelatin products are primarily used in two major categories:

Gelatin for Hard Capsules: Pharmaceutical gelatin serves as the main raw material for hollow hard capsules, which consist of two sections: the cap and the body. Our gelatin ensures cap and the body of capsules are robust, uniform, and reliable in drug delivery.

Gelatin for Tablets: Our gelatin is also widely applied in tablet manufacturing, where it can act as a binder or a coating material. In binding applications, gelatin enhances the compressibility, hardness, and temperature resistance of tablets. As a coating agent, it provides a smooth surface, better adhesion, and improved protection of active ingredients.

Catalog	Products	Details
PI-GE1000	Gelatin for Hard Capsules	We provide two main types of gelatins for capsule production: Alkaline-treated gelatin (Type B): Derived from bovine bones or hides that undergo a liming process, producing gelatin with high gel strength (high bloom value). Acid-treated gelatin (Type A): Obtained from pigskins or bovine hides without the liming process, resulting in different functional properties. Both Type A and Type B gelatins can be used independently or blended to achieve specific performance characteristics in capsule manufacturing. Our high-quality gelatin ensures excellent machinability, transparency, and stability of hard capsules, contributing to consistent drug release and patient safety.
PI-GE1001	Gelatin for Tablets	Key benefits of our tablet-grade gelatin include: Enhanced cohesion and hardness, ensuring tablets remain intact during handling and storage. Extended disintegration time, supporting controlled release profiles. High protein purity, free from fats, and easily absorbed after advanced physicochemical processing. The physical characteristics of our gelatin, such as high viscosity, strong gelling capacity, and easy freezing, allow flexibility in different tableting processes. Moreover, standard pharmaceutical gelatin with superior adhesive properties guarantees stronger binding and improved mechanical performance of coated or compressed tablets.
