    Application

    Filtex range products were designed to be used during body feed filtration as effective substitutes for diatomaceous earths used for cake formation. Contrary to diatomaceous earths, Filtex products are not considered dangerous according to current legislation and therefore can be used without potential hazards for the user.

    Given the chosen raw materials and the type of processing, Filtex products form a homogeneous cake with consistent porosity across the entire breadth.

    This ensures an optimal, deep filtration. For best filtration results, Filtex products are used along with high quality precoats: Rhocell, Fitofloc and Fitomix.

    Dosage and Use
    • 20-100 g/hL according to the potential clogging characteristics of the must or wine
    • Dissolve Filtex within the mass to be filtered and follow with normal processing
