OUR ACTIVITY
Our site produces oral solid dose tablets. Our products are predominantly prescription medicines and are packed in Bottle, Blister and Bulk formats.

RAW MATERIAL WAREHOUSE
This is where our raw materials are received and tested prior to the manufacturing process.
DISPENSING AREA
This is where materials are weighed, labelled and checked before moving to the Granulation area.
GRANULATION AREA
We utilise 2 different granulation technologies:
Wet granulation process
This involves wetting and mixing the powders to form a granule. The granules are then dried, sifted and blended prior to being compressed into tablet form.
Direct Compression granulation technology
This involves the mixing and sifting of dry powders, which are then blended prior to being compressed into tablet form.


TABLETTING AREA
Tabletting involves the compression of the granules using technology to make up the shape of the finished tablet form.
The process also involves the testing of tablets for weight, thickness and hardness.
COATING AREA
Tablet Coating technology involves the spraying of an aqueous based coating solution onto our tablets.
We coat the tablet for a number of reasons:
- it can mask the taste
- for physical and chemical protection as it protects the drug in the stomach
- for controlling the release profile of the active pharmaceutical ingredient within the tablet
- to change the colour of the tablet for marketing purposes

TABLET PRINTING
Tablet printing allows the printing of the Servier logo on some tablet forms.
