MCT-UK Ltd. is a specialist manufacturer of micro-encapsulation technology, providing sustainable, bio-degradable, and custom-made microcapsule solutions for industries including laundry, textiles, and fragrance.
MCT-UK Ltd. specializes in micro-encapsulation technology, focusing on the development and manufacturing of high-performance microcapsules. Established in 1999, the company utilizes advanced encapsulation processes to house lipophilic products within small vessels, typically less than 10 microns in size. A key differentiator for the firm is its commitment to sustainability; it is recognized as a leader in creating bio-degradable and non-polymer-based microcapsule solutions, which serve as environmentally friendly alternatives to traditional plastic-based polymers. The company operates a purpose-built facility and maintains a strong emphasis on research and development to push the boundaries of encapsulation techniques.
This technology is critical for clients in industries such as laundry, fragrance, textile manufacturing, and insect control, where the controlled release of active payloads is required. By enabling the use of smaller quantities of active ingredients while prolonging their effectiveness, MCT-UK helps partners improve product performance and sustainability. Based in Somerset, UK, the company functions as a hub for commercial activity, including project creation and innovation, while serving an international client base. They pride themselves on a collaborative approach, offering custom-made products, rapid development cycles, and short lead times to meet specific client requirements.
