Industries We Serve | EMMKAY INDUSTRIES

EMMKAY INDUSTRIES manufactures precision tablet dies and punches for every industry that uses rotary tablet press machines. Since 1983, we have supplied tooling to manufacturers across pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, ayurvedic, confectionery, veterinary, chemical, and industrial sectors.

Every industry has unique tablet requirements — different shapes, sizes, materials, compression forces, and regulatory standards. Our 40+ years of experience across these sectors means we understand the specific tooling challenges each industry faces and provide solutions that deliver consistent tablet quality, extended tooling life, and maximum production efficiency.

Pharmaceutical Industry

The pharmaceutical industry is the largest user of tablet dies and punches globally. Pharmaceutical tablets must meet strict standards for weight uniformity, hardness, friability, dissolution, and appearance.

Common Pharmaceutical Tablets: Analgesics, antibiotics, cardiovascular drugs, antidiabetics, antihistamines, vitamins, and all oral solid dosage forms.

Ayurvedic and Herbal Industry

India's ayurvedic and herbal medicine industry is growing rapidly, and tablet manufacturing is replacing traditional powder and paste formats. Ayurvedic formulations present unique tooling challenges — sticky herbal extracts, hygroscopic ingredients, and corrosive plant-based compounds.

Common Ayurvedic Tablets: Ashwagandha, Triphala, Giloy, Tulsi, Brahmi, Shatavari, Guggul, and proprietary herbal formulations.

Nutraceutical and Supplement Industry

The nutraceutical industry produces vitamins, minerals, dietary supplements, protein tablets, and functional health products. These tablets are often larger than pharmaceutical tablets and may contain abrasive ingredients like calcium, iron, and mineral compounds.

Common Nutraceutical Tablets: Multivitamins, calcium supplements, iron tablets, protein tablets, omega-3 tablets, herbal supplements, and effervescent tablets.

Candy and Confectionery Industry

Candy and confectionery tablets include pressed mints, candy tablets, compressed sweets, and novelty-shaped confections. This industry demands creative shapes, vibrant embossing, and food-grade tooling standards.

Common Confectionery Tablets: Pressed mints, candy tablets, compressed sweets, dextrose tablets, effervescent candy, and novelty-shaped confections.

Veterinary and Animal Health Industry

Veterinary tablets include livestock boluses, pet chewable supplements, medicated feed tablets, and antiparasitic treatments. These products often require larger tooling (B tooling) and durable materials to handle dense, abrasive formulations.

Common Veterinary Tablets: Cattle boluses, sheep drenches, pet vitamins, deworming tablets, antibiotic tablets, and medicated feed supplements.

Chemical and Industrial Industry

Beyond healthcare and food, tablet compression is used in chemical and industrial applications. Detergent tablets, catalyst tablets, fertilizer tablets, and industrial cleaning tablets all require precision dies and punches.

Common Chemical/Industrial Tablets: Dishwasher tablets, laundry detergent tablets, pool chlorine tablets, catalyst pellets, fertilizer tablets, and industrial cleaning tablets.
