Pharmaceutical grade bovine bone gelatin, BSE-free sourced, USP/EP compliant, GMP manufactured, with consistent film formation for hard capsules, tablet binding, micro-encapsulation, and drug delivery systems.
BSE-free pharmaceutical gelatin for hard capsule production
Pharmaceutical grade bovine bone gelatin is specifically manufactured for hard capsule production under stringent GMP conditions. Sourced from BSE-free certified bovine bones, it meets pharmacopoeia standards (USP/EP/JP) with consistent bloom strength and viscosity. The Type B (alkaline-processed) gelatin provides optimal film-forming properties, ensuring uniform wall thickness, mechanical strength and rapid dissolution for reliable capsule performance.
