Interview with Mingtai
Mr. Chen, Mingtai and Nordmann have been working together successfully for over two decades. What makes this partnership so special for you?
Richer Chen: Our collaboration with Nordmann is based on mutual trust, shared values, and a clear focus on quality and innovation. We share the same passion for new trends and customer focus. Over the years, we have not only achieved a great deal in business, but have also built a genuine partnership characterized by respect and openness.
Comprecel® SMCC is an important part of your portfolio. What advantages does this product offer as an excipient, and how do you see its role in the future?
Richer Chen: Comprecel® SMCC (silicified microcrystalline cellulose) is a highly functional ingredient composed of 98% microcrystalline cellulose and 2% colloidal silicon dioxide. Thanks to advanced co-processing technology, the silicon dioxide is evenly distributed on the surface of the MCC particles.
This ingredient offers numerous advantages: it solves complex formulation challenges, improves flowability, and simplifies the manufacturing process – all without compromising compressibility and the hardness of tablets. Comprecel® SMCC is particularly well-suited for direct compression, dry granulation, and MUPS (Multiple-Unit Pellet System) formulations.
Our portfolio includes several variants – Comprecel® SMCC 50, 90, 90HD, and 90LM – which differ in particle size, density, and moisture content. This allows us to offer tailored solutions for a wide range of needs in pharmaceutical development and production.
Comprecel® SMCC will continue to play a key role in the future when it comes to developing innovative, stable, and efficiently manufacturable dosage forms.
What does Mingtai expect from the upcoming CPHI in Europe, which will take place in Frankfurt at the end of October? Which trends are particularly exciting for you?
Richer Chen: CPHI is an important platform for us to engage in dialogue with customers and partners. We expect interesting discussions about new technologies, regulatory developments, and sustainable solutions. We are particularly focused on trends such as “green chemistry”. We have built a new and already EXCiPACT certified manufacturing facility at our new site in Hukou Township to boost our sustainability. Hukou Site features environment-friendly designs, process improvement and equipment upgrades to actively contribute to the community.
You will find us as a co-exhibitor of Nordmann at CPHI at booth Q57 in hall 8.
