DARACLAR® – The smart solution for clear, stable beers

For decades, Nordmann partner W. R. Grace has been synonymous with innovation and quality in the brewing industry. With its DARACLAR® product line, Grace offers a range of high-purity, amorphous silica products specifically developed for stabilizing and clarifying beer.

DARACLAR® silica – Precision in stabilization

DARACLAR® silica selectively removes cloud-forming proteins and polyphenols – the main causes of chill haze. The foam stability, taste, and color of the beer are completely preserved. The products are insoluble in beer and are completely removed during filtration.
