ZOOMSHEAL compresses, coats and packs tablets in our GMP-certified Guangzhou facility — vitamins, minerals, botanicals and multivitamin blends — in round, oval, caplet and custom shapes from 1,000 units per SKU.
Tablet Manufacturing, From Granulation to Coated Tablet
A tablet is the cheapest dose form per unit and the hardest to get right. Powder has to flow, compress and stay intact through packing, shipping and a two-year shelf life — and most failures trace back to granulation rather than the press. We choose between direct compression, wet granulation and roller compaction based on the blend: a high-dose mineral mix needs granulation to bind, a botanical extract usually runs better direct with the right glidant.
Then come the parameters your customer actually notices. Hardness controls whether the tablet chips in the bottle; friability controls dust and weight loss in transit; coating controls taste, moisture and swallowability. We set target hardness and friability per formula, check them through the run, and confirm disintegration and dissolution so the tablet performs the way the label promises, not just the day it left the press.

Our Tablet Contract Manufacturing Process
Quality Control for Tablet Production
Every lot is released against a specification covering appearance, average weight and weight variation, hardness, thickness, friability, disintegration time, microbial limits, heavy metals and an assay of the declared actives. Dissolution testing is available where the formula calls for a release profile, and retain samples are kept for the full shelf life.
Two numbers decide whether a tablet survives the supply chain: friability, which should stay under 1% loss, and hardness relative to coating. A tablet that is hard enough to ship but too hard to disintegrate within specification is just as much a failure as one that crumbles, so both are set together for each formula rather than copied from a generic target.
