Ingredients + Specialties from Univar Solutions has proudly partnered with Sigachi® as an authorized distributor of its MCC and co-processed excipient products.

As one of the largest manufacturers of microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) and cellulose powder globally, Sigachi® delivers these products worldwide through a robust distribution network and direct warehouses.

MCC is a commonly used excipient in the pharmaceutical industry. Recognized for its compression and filling properties, it is used in oral solid dosage forms in both pharmaceutical and nutraceutical applications and is a core excipient in direct compression and wet granulation technology, giving product hardness and good disintegration time.

Sigachi® has invested in the development of co-processed products, such as HiCel™ MCC and the BARETab™ range (ready-to-use co-processed excipients).
