Ludipress® – Enabling efficient direct tabletting
Ludipress® – a granulate that means quicker, easier, and more cost-effective tabletting. With Ludipress®, you save precious time on developing, analyzing and blending. You simply add your active ingredient, a lubricant, and compress your tablets. It is that easy.
What makes Ludipress so effective?
Ludipress® is suitable for low-dosage active ingredients. The excipient is based on extensive research and development, aimed at creating excipients that enable faster, more efficient manufacturing – while delivering perfect results every time.
Ludipress® is created by a sophisticated production process. It is a unique three-in-one system, combining the strengths of three excipients: lactose as carrier and filler, binding agent Kollidon® 30, and Kollidon® CL – one of the best disintegrants on the market. Together, they form a granulate with excellent flowability, low hygroscopicity, plus outstanding binding power. This enables you to quickly and easily create homogeneous mixtures with your active ingredient, and to directly compress high-quality tablets.

Ludipress® – excellent tablets every time.
Ludipress® is a granulate that supports direct-compression tableting, making your life much easier. And giving you peace of mind: because you know you can be sure of great results, each and every time.
Ludipress® combines the three functionalities of a filler, binder and disintegrant in a ready-to-use excipient for tabletting using the direct compression technology. Ludipress® yields tablets of low friability, even with low compression forces, and irrespective of tableting speed. Kollidon® CL, one of the most effective disintegrants around, means tablets start to disintegrate within moments – despite superb hardness.
Ludipress® yields exceptionally high-quality tablets:
