Filter papers for the clarification of oils

Recommended for the clarification of edible and technical oils and fats.

The pure raw materials – Cotton Linters and Cellulose are used in the production of these filter papers, which allow their use with food and beverages.

For selected types, the conformity to both the U.S. FDA recommendation 21 CFR and by the German BfR (Federal Institute for Risk Evaluation) recommendation XXXVI and XXXVI/1 (1.6.2009) can be approved.

Broad range of papers with optional filtration time and retention rate, meeting the needs of individual viscosities.

Particularly voluminous papers are the best medium to filter highly viscous liquids. Creped papers shorten the filtration time as the surface is enlarged.

Qualified for the use in filter presses.
