Innovations Driving the Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose Industry Forward
Leading players in the hydroxypropyl methylcellulose sector are prioritizing product innovation to maintain a competitive advantage. One example is the development of Low Nitrite METHOCEL HPMC, a modified version designed to minimize nitrosamine formation risks in pharmaceutical products. In November 2025, Roquette, a France-based food and pharmaceutical ingredient company, introduced this new grade. Low Nitrite METHOCEL HPMC retains the film-forming, binder, and formulation flexibility properties typical of conventional HPMC but ensures nitrite concentrations stay at or below 200 parts per billion. This enhancement promotes safer compliance standards for controlled-release and other oral dosage forms, thus broadening HPMC's applicability in formulations that require high safety and moisture sensitivity.
