Export region
Tablet coating material exported to Australia and New Zealand
TGA and Medsafe oversight, with a large complementary medicines sector alongside pharmaceutical manufacture.
Written by the Rglax Pharma technical team, who formulate and manufacture every grade named on this page at our WHO-GMP works in Tahliwal, Una (drug manufacturing licence NNZ/23/238). Reviewed 3 September 2026. Licences and certificates.

What this region runs
Australia carries a substantial complementary medicines and supplements manufacturing sector alongside conventional pharmaceutical production, much of it producing coated tablets in volume. TGA requirements for listed and registered goods differ, and that affects what an excipient supplier has to provide.
Why our range fits it
The nutraceutical and complementary medicines side of our range is directly relevant here, and it is a segment we already supply at scale in India. Conventional pharmaceutical work runs to European and British Pharmacopoeia expectations.
What to send us
Say whether the product is a listed complementary medicine or a registered pharmaceutical, because the documentation path is not the same.

Grades
The 4 grades most asked for in Australia and New Zealand.
Chosen against the climate zone, the product mix and the documentation expectations of the region. Each links to its full page, with the process parameters it was developed on.
Moisture barrier for Amoxycillin and Clavulanate
Solvent base extra white barrier film for the most moisture sensitive combination.
Moisture barrier film coat on a solvent base, extra white, developed for Amoxycillin and Clavulanate potassium tablets. Water ingress during and after coating drives degradation in that combination, and this grade is built to hold it out.

Aqueous film coat, extra white
Water base extra white film coat for cores that show through a standard white.
Aqueous extra white film coat developed for tablets where the core colour bleeds through a conventional white film. Calcium and Azithromycin cores are the usual cases. It gives higher opacity at the same build-up.

Colour or white seal coat
Pigmented sub-coat where the seal layer also has to cover the core.
Colour or white seal coat for cores that need covering as well as sealing, so the finishing film coat can be applied at a lower build-up.

- Aqueous or non-aqueous
- Finish ·
- White or colour
Metallic and pearl film coat
Solvent base metallic and pearl effect film coats, supplied in the agreed shade.
The MNaq series is a non-aqueous ready-mix film coat that gives a metallic or pearl effect finish. Each shade carries its own code, and every code runs the same way on the coater. The shade is matched and confirmed against your reference sample before the batch is released, so a repeat order reproduces the finish you approved rather than a fresh interpretation of it.

What ships to Australia and New Zealand
Tablets coated on our own pan at Tahliwal. Shade is matched against a retained sample you send us, not against a colour code.
