DIACEL is a highly pure cellulose filter aid that is virtually non- abrasive. It is used where a filter element or septum is wearing prematurely by the action of other filter media. DIACEL is biodegradable and easy to dispose.

Its advantages include its high purity, lack of crystalline silica, low wet density, chemical neutrality, inertness to most solvents and alkalis. In adhesive applications, long open time and improved adhesion strength. It combusts with virtually no ash and provides increased volumetric coverage.

GENICEL pellets are made from TECHNOCEL fibres and SASOBIT asphalt modifier. GENICEL is used as a stabilising additive in Stone Mastic Asphalt and heavy duty binder courses. The addition of GENICEL leads to reduction of rutting and improved durability of asphalt, improved compaction and reduction in mixing and laying temperatures.

QUALICEL dietary vegetable fibres are so inert that they can be added to foods and beverages without changing the taste of the product. They have varied applications in foodstuffs including anti-caking agent, improved water balance, calorie reduction, fibre enrichment, controlled water and fat uptake in fried foods and carrier for flavours.

SANACEL is a powdered cellulose, specifically designed and milled for the same applications as QUALICEL.

TECHNOCEL fibres are available in two forms, highly pure alpha cellulose and mineral modified cellulose. The pulp is processed to provide a particle sixe of 30 - 5000 microns. TECHNOCEL is used in a wide range of applications providing thixotropic control, cracking inhibition, shrinkage control and setting timer control.

TOPCEL is pelletised TECHNOCEL 1004 fibres. It is the preferred additive for modern SMA road building technology, and other industrial applications. It has been developed to provide problem free, safe dosing of fibre to to drum mixing plants, equaling the performance of loose fibre.
