Taste is
engineering.

Raise the dose and the strip gets thicker, dissolves slower and needs more flavor masking. Dose, polymer, thickness, moisture, mouthfeel and dissolve time get set together.

ORAL FILM MANUFACTURING, DECODED

Different names.
Same hard job.

Oral dissolving film (ODF), oral thin film (OTF), mouth-dissolving strips, sublingual film and orally disintegrating film are the names buyers search for. Route and claims depend on the product. The brief asks the same questions whatever you call it: active load, flavor, dissolve target, pilot quantity, testing and packaging.

Private / white label

Put your flavor direction, artwork and carton on a strip concept that has already been through a pilot, and skip the development rounds.

Every lot

Every lot gets the same release checks: appearance, weight, moisture, seal, potency and micro, with third-party results from ILS Lab. Every run leaves with its own paper.

PILOT RUN FAQ

Start small.
Learn fast.

Can I start with a 500-box pilot run?

Yes. Qualified projects begin with a 500-box pilot; the brief review confirms the formula, strip count and packaging fit it. The pilot is sellable product, released with the same tests as a full run.

How many strips does that mean?

Five hundred 20-count boxes equal 10,000 strips. Five hundred 30-count boxes equal 15,000 strips. We show both box and strip quantities in the project brief so the first run is easy to picture.

Private label or custom?

Private label is faster when an existing concept already fits your brand. Custom development is for a new active, dose or mouthfeel, and adds development rounds before the pilot.

What happens after I send a project brief?

An engineer reads it and replies with what is feasible at your dose, what has to be tested first, and the pilot scope and timing.

What are oral dissolving films also called?

Depending on intended use, buyers may use oral dissolving film (ODF), oral thin film (OTF), mouth-dissolving strip, fast-dissolving strip, sublingual film, buccal film, melt-in-mouth strip, or orally disintegrating film. The intended route and product claims must be confirmed for each project.

Is an oral film manufacturer the same as an OEM, CMO, or CDMO?

OEM, CMO and CDMO are labels for how much development the manufacturer does. StripWorks does both: private label on an existing concept, or custom development from your active. Either way, formulation, testing, packaging and regulatory responsibilities are written into the project scope.
