INOXPA Mixing Unit CMC

The CMC mixing unit is a skid designed for a fast dispersion of hydrocolloid products.

hydrocolloid products such as carboxymethylcellulose (CMC), flours, carbopol, pectin, and guar or xanthan gum.

These additives serve various functions in industries, including thickening, jellifying, stabilizing, and complexing.

In the food industry, they provide texture, body, consistency, and stability to food products.

In the cosmetics industry, they act as thickeners, stabilizers, suspending agents, and film formers in creams, lotions, or shampoo.
