Enteric-Coated Gummy Manufacturer — Delayed Release Gummies
An enteric-coated gummy combines the appeal of a gummy with a coating designed to resist the stomach environment so the active is released further along the digestive tract. It is a practical way to deliver acid-sensitive ingredients in a format consumers actually enjoy taking.

How the coating works
A thin coating layer is applied over the gummy core. The coating is selected to remain intact at low pH and dissolve at higher pH, so actives are protected during the stomach phase. Coating thickness and composition are tuned per formulation.
Why brands choose enteric-coated gummies
- Protects acid-sensitive actives through the stomach phase
- Improves taste by sealing the active inside the core
- Keeps the enjoyable gummy experience for consumers
- Differentiates a product in a crowded gummy category
- Vegetarian gummy bases available
Typical applications
Probiotic blends, digestive enzymes, omega-3, sensitive vitamins and botanical extracts where protection during digestion supports product performance.
Development and production
Coating trials and stability checks are part of sampling (3–5 weeks). Production lead time is typically 20–30 days after sample approval.
