FLOWPURE™ – Eliminating pesticides
WHAT IS FLOWPURE™?
- FLOWPURE™ is the only solution on the market specifically dedicated to the elimination of pesticide residues in wine, validated by the OIV.
- FLOWPURE™ is fully in line with the LAFFORT® vision for the development of precision oenological solutions from nature.
- A micronised and gluten-free plant fibre from organic farming, produced according to an environmentally friendly process.
- FLOWPURE™ is made up of the biochemical constituents of the plant cell wall: hemicellulose, cellulose, lignin, proteins and lipids.
The FLOWPURE™ fibre is activated by a succession of mechanical treatments in water, then micronised, giving it specific adsorption properties to reduce the concentration of:
- Pesticide residues that may be present in wines.
- Ochratoxin A.
FLOWPURE™ IN PRACTICE.
Easy to use, FLOWPURE™ is employed during wine filtration.
Effective in reducing the concentration of many fungicides.
