Q: Why choose coconut shell PAC?

Coconut shell PAC has the lowest ash (<5%), lowest iron (<0.05%), and most neutral pH (6-8) among all PAC types. Essential for food, pharmaceutical, and cosmetics applications where purity is non-negotiable.

Q: What is it used for in food processing?

Sugar and syrup decolorization, wine and spirits clarification, MSG purification, citric acid processing, amino acid purification, and edible oil refining.

Q: Does it meet food-grade standards?

Yes, our coconut shell PAC meets FCC (Food Chemicals Codex), E153, HALAL, Kosher, and pharmacopoeia standards. Acid-washed grades available for ultra-low metals content.

Q: What mesh sizes are available?

200 mesh and 325 mesh are standard. 200 mesh for general decolorization, 325 mesh for applications requiring finer particles and faster adsorption kinetics.

Q: How is it packaged?

25kg moisture-proof bags on pallets, or 500kg jumbo bags. Custom packaging with your brand available. All shipments include COA with full test results.
