The company is a specialist in particle formation, encapsulation, immobilization and formulation of a variety of compounds. The main focuses are toll-production of particles on industrial scale, development and manufacture of tools and machines for R&D as well as the provision of services related to their field.

As a service provider the company is not only a toll-producer for particles but also offers its services in process development based on its patented technologies, encapsulation on demand, and development of encapsulation or formulation procedures for biocatalysts, probiotics, vitamins, fragrances or other active substances.

Technology 1

This is a proprietary technology to form uniform droplet from preferably viscous fluids. Depending on the fluids nature, solidification leads to particles, e.g. by gelation, immediate cooling or ionic action in a suitable curing solution.

Technology 2

These are special lens-shaped hydrogels based on poly-vinylalcohol (PVA). They were developed as a powerful alternative to the widely spread encapsulation of biocatalyst into biopolymer-based hydrogels, e.g. on basis of calcium alginate, that often bears disadvantages regarding biological or mechanical stability.

Conventional technologies

Besides its proprietary technologies the company offers also the encapsulation by using conventional techniques like simple dripping, dripping with lateral airstream, or laminar jet-breakup (vibration) using their own machines and equipment.
