16 May 2012 --- Europe’s leading manufacturer of solid oral dosage forms, the Aenova Group, is exhibiting two innovative products from its portfolio for the first time at Vitafoods in Geneva: CaloriSorb, a class III drug for weight reduction, and a new technology for manufacturing three-layer-tablets.

At Vitafoods Europe, which is taking place from 22 to 24 May 2012 in Geneva, the Aenova Group is presenting two new highlights from its range of products and services: CaloriSorb, a class III drug for weight reduction, and an innovative technology for manufacturing three-layer-tablets. CaloriSorb contains a natural polymer which reduces calorie absorption from dietary fats and helps with weight control.

The group, which has a strong presence on the global market, provides technologies to meet a wide range of customer requirements, including the manufacture of soft gelatine capsules, tablets and effervescent products. Aenova also offers its customers a complete portfolio of services, ranging from development, production and analysis through to packaging and logistics.
