HIGHLIGHTS

Fitofloc fiber has been successfully mixed with mineral silica, beforehand select for dimensions and purity, as to obtain a product which has a much higher retention power than pure mineral silica: its name is Fitomix. It's obtained with a particular moisturizing process and represents a perfect real fusion between Fitofloc fiber and the select mineral silica. In a water solution, even if it's very diluted, Fitomix shows no traces of sediments of the siliceous aid.; FILTERING PROPERTIES; This filter media puts together the retention power of Fitofloc fiber and the flow-rates of the best mineral silica. For this reason it's recommended in filtration of hazy wines with a too high yeast cell during the first stages of wine fining, thus obtaining very good results of clearness and flow-rates. The very good structure of Fitomix, binds well the mineral silica avoiding losses of this material in the filtered liquid during filtration. This reduces abrasions of the filter-elements compared to the use of only kieselgur or perlite.; Fitomix is available in three versions:; Fitomix Largo for coarse filtration; Fitomix DC for polishing filtration; Fitomix Super for very fining filtration
