Soflet® Gelcaps is a patented technology that enrobes tablets with either a gelatin or non-animal film. This dosage form is preferred by consumers because of its ease of swallowing, and its taste, and odor masking properties provided by the coating.

The unique, patented manufacturing process of Soflet® Gelcaps results in a two-toned color dosage form that can be easily printed on, offering distinctive opportunities for product branding and differentiation. In finished form, Soflet® Gelcaps are tamper-evident, increasing consumer safety. Soflet® Gelcap technology is therefore widely used in over-the-counter products, both branded and private label.

Three out of four consumers preferred Soflet® Gelcaps over tablets in a recent study - so much so that respondents would purchase Soflet® Gelcaps over tablets at a 10% premium. That’s good news, considering preference heightens patient compliance and increases consumer purchasing.

Soflet® Gelcaps are ideal for clinical trial blinding. Banner now has the capability of manufacturing non-animal Soflet® Gelcaps as well.
