Effective filters for increased winemaking productivity
We have been supplying filter aids to the winemaking industry for more than 50 years. We’ve been working on filtration solutions since large-scale filtration became common practice in commercial winemaking.
Today, we are the leading manufacturer of perlite and Diatomaceous Earth (DE) filter aids for beverage filtration, with nearly a century of production experience and applications knowledge.
Innovation
As part of our commitment to delivering filtration innovation to the winemaking industry, we have spent a long time talking to oenologists, wine producers, filtration service providers and oenological product suppliers to identify their main concerns regarding filter aid filtration.
Application-specific benefits
Our experience and consultations with winemakers have led us to develop filtration aids that offer:
- Increased capacity requirements – with the ability to filter more juice or wine during each filtration.
- Reduction in powder dosing – more efficient filters means more solids captured at lower dosing rates.
- Less juice/wine losses in the spent filter cake – leading to increased yields.
- Less spent filter cake – lower powder dosing rates and less juice/wine losses mean less spent filter cake to be disposed of at the end of filtration.
