Topical semi-solid dosage forms for the pharmaceutical industry can be formulated as creams, gels, ointments or pastes. As well as an active ingredient, they may also contain emulsifiers, stabilizing agents, viscosity modifiers and, in some applications, antioxidants.Gels (sometimes call jellies) can be used to administer drugs via the skin or bodily cavities, depending on the desired therapeutic effect and the site of action or administration.

The GEA Advantage

Whatever it is you want to produce in your process plant, our wide range of plant modules will perform any task and meet any requirements or conditions. By using the latest components and valve technology, and the latest manufacturing concepts for vessels and skids, we ensure that you will be able to use your plant to manufacture your product in a manner that is economic, gentle and efficient.

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.
