Romaco India inaugurated its Solids Processing Experience Center on the evening of September 4, 2024, in Sultanpur, Hyderabad. Located in the Medical Device Park at the 4th Exit of Outer Ring Road, the facility is designed to provide hands-on experience with advanced solids processing technologies. The centre features a development laboratory and equipment showroom, offering support for key processes like granulation, fluid-bed granulation, drying, pellet coating, hot melt coating, tableting, and tablet coating.

The Hyderabad centre is intended to cater to the needs of the Indian market, providing expert solutions for pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, and other industries dealing with solid dosage production. The Romaco team offers high-shear granulation, fluid-bed granulation, pellet coating, and hot melt coating processes, along with expertise in tableting and tablet coating.

Some of the processing challenges addressed by Romaco’s facility include issues with product flowability, stability, variation in content uniformity, and multi-particulate coating. The centre also provides solutions for handling wet and hot-melt granulation and coating, along with improvements for heat- and moisture-sensitive products and tablet compressibility.

Additional services include in-process testing, material characterization, and troubleshooting.
