Maximize Your Brand’s Performance
Use Press-Fit and XPress-Fit gelcaps to create a new look for your product, helping it stand out to consumers and increase sales.
Our proprietary PressFit and Xpress-Fit technology comes with distinctive benefits:
- Easy-to-swallow
- Masks taste and odor
- Improves and differentiates your brand image with custom color options
- Flexible in-house and outsourced production capabilities
- Outstanding quality – manufactured in accordance with cGMP guidelines
- Certified quality assurance system for traceability of raw materials
In addition, XPress-Fit gelcaps can be manufactured with a unique fluid access channel for faster onset – a rapid-release feature exclusive to XPress-Fit gelcaps. Gastric fluid enters channels on the exposed caplet surface, accelerating drug release.
Flexibility Abounds
Unlike competing gel-enrobing technologies, Press-Fit and XPress-Fit gelcaps can easily be manufactured in-house with minimal investment. Capsugel has collaborated with IMA, a leading manufacturer of capsule filling machines, to develop a specialized machine for filling Press-Fit and XPress-Fit gelcaps of all sizes.
For companies that prefer to outsource manufacturing, the Press-Fit or XPress-Fit production technology is available from several leading contract manufacturers.
