At Vitafoods Europe 2026, IMA Pharma highlights its comprehensive and integrated approach to nutraceutical manufacturing. From 5th to 7th May in Barcelona, the pharmaceutical divisions IMA Active, IMA Safe and OMAS Tecnosistemi will showcase at Booth 5F6 their complete range of technologies covering the full nutraceutical production cycle.
Rooted in the philosophy of “unlocking nature’s potential with the knowledge of technology”, IMA delivers dependable and efficient solutions that support manufacturers in achieving higher performance and long-term scalability.
Over several years, IMA Active has conducted in-depth research into the critical areas of nutraceutical manufacturing and developed a wide range on dedicated technological solutions to carefully process all the nutraceutical products.
Machines are designed to provide superior versatility and ensure reliability, efficiency and accuracy even with the most difficult products. Particular care has been taken to build sustainable machines with low servicing and running costs and assuring a cleaner working environment.
At Vitafoods IMA Active introduces three key systems for solid dose processing.
The PREXIMA 300 tablet press delivers uniform tablet quality even with challenging powders, reflecting the division’s distinctive engineering expertise. UNICA, a compact single-punch tablet press, is ideal for R&D and small-scale batches thanks to its precision and user-friendly design.
Completing the range, MINIMA, the table-top capsule filler, ensures highly accurate dosing for all capsule sizes. IMA Safe extends this same philosophy to packaging, addressing the specific requirements of nutraceutical products with solutions that combine pharmaceutical-grade reliability with the flexibility demanded by this evolving market.
At Vitafoods Europe, IMA Safe presents a selection of technologies designed to cover different production needs. Among these, the TR135 blister machine exemplifies how pharmaceutical expertise can be effectively transferred to the nutraceutical sector.
Compact in design, it ensures full accessibility, fast cleaning, and complete visibility—key factors in environments where frequent product change overs are required. Its compatibility with PVC-free materials also reflects a growing attention to more sustainable packaging choices. Alongside blistering, counting technologies play a critical role in nutraceutical packaging lines.
The SVIII counter, developed by IMA Swiftpack, is designed to meet the sector’s need for versatility and ease of operation. Built with accessibility and cleanability in mind, it can be equipped with both optical sensors and electrostatic field sensors to handle a wide range of formats and product characteristics.
Omas Tecnosistemi
table-top filler for powders
and granulates
From traditional tablets and hard or soft gelatine capsules to more complex and increasingly popular formats such as gummies and jellies, the system ensures accurate and reliable counting across different applications.
Completing the overview, visitors will also find the POWD-FILL table-top machine, a solution developed by Omas Tecnosistemi for powder filling applications. Conceived for small-scale producers, it offers a practical and versatile entry point for companies approaching internal production or managing initial batches, where simplicity, flexibility, and ease of use are essential.
Combining processing, tableting, encapsulation, counting, filling and packaging, IMA Pharma positions itself as the Total Nutraceutical Partner, offering one of the most complete and synergistic portfolios in the industry.
Thanks to cross divisional expertise and an integrated technological ecosystem, IMA supports manufacturers from early formulation through to full scale industrial production, helping them accelerate time-tomarket and ensure consistent product quality at every stage.
Visitors are invited to discover the technologies on display and engage directly with IMA experts to explore how the Group’s unified capabilities can elevate their production strategies.
