BLENDING

Uniform blends,
consistent dosing.

Ingredients that differ in density, shape or particle size tend to separate in conventional blenders. Our American-made fluidizing paddle blenders hold the entire batch in suspension, keeping every ingredient evenly distributed.

The result is a highly uniform blend with a low coefficient of variation (CV), typically achieved in under two minutes, so the last capsule of a run delivers the same dose as the first.
