Gusmer Enterprises’ newly developed range of filter sheet media, the Crystalline Silica Free (CSF) filter series, has been designed and formulated to be free of crystalline silica* yet offer the same outstanding performance of conventional filter sheet media. Gusmer’s CSF gradient density filter sheets are a composite of the finest cellulose pulps and crystalline silica free filter aids. Produced with a controlled porosity, the CSF filter sheets have superior throughput capacity and excellent retention capabilities. The CSF series can be relied on to remove micron and submicron particulate such as gross solids, haze constituents, yeast, bacteria and colloids on a consistent basis while preserving color, aromas and flavors in beverage products. *Based on OSHA mixture exception of <1% crystalline silica for natural DE.
