Alfa's partner, Gattefossé, offers a range of advanced lubricants for tablets and capsules.

These inert spray-cooled lipidic excipients have a number of advantages over traditional tablet and capsule lubricants and provide solutions to frequently encountered formulation and production problems including:

- Incompatibility of lubricants with actives
- Poor powder flow properties resulting in loss of homogeneity
- Inadequate lubrication during compression resulting in capping
- Reduced or loss of cohesion
- Prolonged disintegration time
- Unsatisfactory dissolution rate
- Scale-up
