METHOCEL™ is a plant-based, water-soluble functional ingredient derived from cellulose that is available in a variety of grades to support dietary supplement manufacturing. These cellulose ethers are used for controlled release of nutritional ingredients, tablet coatings for improved swallowability, heat and humidity resistance of hard capsules and masking bitter-tasting nutritional ingredients.
 

Reliable and Multi-Functional

METHOCEL™ products have been utilized in continuous production in the pharma and food industries for more than 70 years. Now we’re using our rich knowledge, production facilities and deep product expertise from around the globe to formulate superior dietary supplements enabled with film-forming applications such as tablet coatings and capsules, granulation, controlled release and much more.

The METHOCEL™ family of cellulose ethers offers exceptional flexibility and a broad range of properties not typically found in other water-soluble ingredients. In many applications, two or more ingredients may be needed to do the same job performed by one METHOCEL™ product. That means one ingredient can do the job of many, saving money and time.
