Topical formulations present many challenges regarding bioavailability and stability. As such, controlling material parameters such as particle size and viscosity are critical. By contrast, gels are becoming increasingly important in the pharmaceutical industry as, compared with pastes and creams, it’s easier to confirm the full dissolution of the active ingredient, as well as providing superior absorption characteristics.
Personal Care
In the home and personal care sector, this product form can be processed into clear, shear thinning formulations for shower gels, shaving gels, toothpastes, hair care products (microemulsions), deodorants and liquid soaps. They usually comprise water or alcoholic solutions that are gelled or thickened with specific agents such as natural gums, acrylic polymers or cellulosic-type polymers.

Innovating for impact: shaping better solutions for customers
Industrial production is being asked to use fewer resources, become smarter and keep equipment productive for longer. At GEA, that is changing how innovation happens: engineering, customer insight, digital expertise and service come together earlier – when a solution can still be shaped at its core.
