WINCOAT Colours & Coatings Pvt. Ltd, pioneer in manufacturing the entire range of tablets film coating solutions has launched another innovative product “ QUICKCOAT”. This is the fastest aqueous coating at low bed temperature.

 QUICKCOAT maximizes Return on Investment (ROI) in terms of 60 per cent coating time saving, increased batch turnover, elimination of solvents, enhanced stability & increased productivity. It has been patented in many countries.

QUICKCOAT is chemically engineered with a polymer which has very low viscosity. The spraying suspension can be loaded with 20 – 25 per cent w/w solid contents as compared to 10 – 12 per cent w/w suspension in regular aqueous film coating. The reduced spraying volume reduces the overall process time.

The USP of the product is the projected inlet temperature which is as low as 48° C – 50° C. This also makes QUICKCOAT the most suitable product for low melting point drugs.

Says Vaibhav Tamhane (Director Marketing), “Our innovative solution ‘QUICKCOAT’ for the fastest aqueous coating has indeed been a revolution in Readymix Tablet coating. It has created a significant interest in formulations & development departments worldwide. We are committed to deliver the best quality products and aim to raise the quotient by ensuring strong customer support. Every tablet coating readymix we offer is a technology by itself and we always strive hard towards perfection and customers’ delight.”

WINCOAT delivers high performance and quality products in over 60 countries. Considering the huge demand for its products, WINCOAT has undergone expansion maintaining its state of art manufacturing facility as per cGMP. This has also increased the production capacity.
