Silica products manufactured by Huber have Kosher and Pareve as well as Kosher for Passover approvals.
How Do Huber Silicas and Silicates Work?While Huber produces a broad range of silica and silicate products for powdered food applications, the general approach to solving caking and lumping problems is as follows:
Benefits of Huber Free-Flow Additives• Increased production throughput Free-flowing powder offers faster production rates and increased capacity
• Reduced production downtime and maintenance Reduce or eliminate the need to stop equipment to clean out “clogged” powder
• Improved product quality and consistency Less off-spec or reject material from lumping and caking
• Increased consumer satisfaction Improve your customers’ experience with free-flowing, easy to use food powder products
Formulating Tips• Huber silicas and silicates must be blended carefully with the powdered food product; metering equipment should be used and care taken to ensure the product is blended well
• Selecting the proper particle size anti-caking agent can reduce dusting; particles that are too large relative to the host cannot adhere to the host and thus create dust; the use of excessive amounts of anti-caking agent beyond what is needed to coat the surface of the host can result in dust
• In many applications, the Huber silica or silicate can be added just prior to the spray dryer (or drying step) to ensure good contact with the substrate; screw conveyors feeding to a dosing system are typically used
