Next-Gen Microencapsulation Technology
The Beadlets
The next generation of microencapsulated beadlets — engineered for precision, stability, and controlled release in nutraceutical and food industries.
The Science Behind It
How Beadleting Technology Works
Beadleting technology is a microencapsulation technique used in the nutraceutical and food industries to protect, stabilize, and control the release of active ingredients.
It involves converting liquid or powder ingredients into tiny, uniform spherical particles called beadlets. These beadlets are designed to enhance stability, mask taste or odor, and offer controlled or targeted release in the body.
Step-by-Step Process
Why Beads 360°™
Core Processing
The core material, such as vitamins, minerals, probiotics, or botanical extracts, is first processed into a suitable form — typically a fine powder or liquid.
Encapsulation
Next comes encapsulation or coating, where the core is enclosed by protective materials like gelatin, starch, lipids, or polymers for functional purposes.
Protective Coating
Coatings resist moisture, mask unpleasant odor or taste, protect from oxidation or gastric acid, and allow for delayed or sustained release.
Beadlet Formation
Beadlet formation involves spray chilling, fluid bed coating, or extrusion-spheronization — producing spherical beadlets with smooth surfaces and customizable release.
