XGel may sound like something emitted from one of Professor Charles Xavier's students, but in reality it's Meldex International's super power. The British company manufactures XGel for the pharmaceutical industry as a replacement for gelatin in drug capsules. Meldex's water-soluble, biodegradable films have also been used by the health care industry, in environmentally friendly feminine hygiene products, and for a new line of paintballs. It also makes a breath-freshening film for toothpaste. The company operated as BioProgress until late 2007 when it changed its name.

No more inventory! Product on demand! Revolution! Sounds like the sales pitch that came from countless dot-coms circa 1999. But MicroBlend Technologies aims to change the way paint is manufactured and sold through just those heady fin de siecle promises. The Automated Paint Machine system manufactures paint at the point of sale, as it's been ordered (interior/exterior, flat/gloss, color, and amount), reducing the need for a huge retail space devoted to hundreds of gallons of already-made paint. MicroBlend has licensing agreements with several manufacturers to produce its equipment and component sauces. The company has also formed a co-branding partnership with DuPont's coatings unit.
