Mallinckrodt Pharmaceuticals offers high quality pharmaceutical grade stearates (Hyqual, Stear-O-Wet) with the DMF to support your company's formulation work, and food grade stearates that are Kosher, Halal, and RSPO Mass Balance (MB) certified.
Mallinckrodt Stearates have been manufactured at our Saint Louis, Missouri plant for over a century, with an eye on purity, consistency and uniformity. Our products comply with global compendial and regulatory standards such as National Formulary (NF), European Pharmacopoeia (EP), British Pharmacopoeia (BP), and Japanese Pharmacopoeia (JP). Our unique water based precipitation process yields a consistent, platelet-like particle – and is considered a true monohydrate.
As an added value to our customers, Mallinckrodt controls physical parameters not specified in the global compendia that contribute to consistent performance, such as surface area, particle size, and bulk density.
High-purity raw materials, compliance with cGMP requirements for APIs, and vast technical expertise all contribute to making Mallinckrodt the world leader in the production of high-quality, reliably performing Stearates for the pharmaceutical and food industry.
