Food
Food manufacturing depends on a specific mix of raw materials to hit its production, cost, and quality targets. PlaxRaw supplies these materials with consistent specifications and reliable batch-to-batch supply.
Applications
Uses food-grade calcium carbonate as a calcium source to fortify flour and baked goods.
Uses stearic acid as a release/glazing agent that prevents sticking and gives a smooth surface finish.
Uses calcium carbonate as a filler/calcium source and stearic acid as a tableting lubricant.
Uses soda ash in small doses for pH adjustment and in cocoa processing (dutching).
Uses precipitated silica as an anticaking agent to keep powdered blends free-flowing under humidity.
Bars show a quick approximate share in a general formulation for this industry — actual ratios vary by product and production line.
