Qualicaps 6505 Franz Warner Parkway Whitsett, NC 27377 1-800-CAPSULE www.qualicaps.com At Qualicaps ® , we know how important product innovation is to the pharmaceutical industry, which is why we focus on finding ways to improve two-piece capsule development and production. So, when a customer was looking for a way to help their R&D department save time during the drug development process, we found a way to innovate a new capsule that could help improve product development timelines by as much as six months. Qualicaps Prism™ Capsules are empty two-piece capsules with a significant number of colorants and two ink formulations helping speed up development timelines. By using Prism™ Capsules for development work, the company was able to determine trade dress in parallel with stability studies. When marketing was ready to choose a specific color, Qualicaps was able to extract the capsule's wide range of colorants, thereby saving the time necessary for additional stability testing. The customer saved time, money and was able to get their products onto the market quicker than their competitors.
