Filter papers for the production of beverages

Recommended for the clarification of juices, wines, extracts and drinking water.

  • 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.
  • Creped papers shorten the duration of the filtration process as the surface area is enlarged.
  • Qualified for the use in filter presses.
