Food & Feed

Polyvinyl alcohol is an inherently biodegradable water-soluble polymer. Due to its special properties, polyvinyl alcohol can be used in a wide variety of different applications. Special polyvinyl alcohol grades are even approved for application in the food and feed sector. For instance, in certain regions polyvinyl alcohol can be used as a glazing agent in food supplement tablets or as a carrier in animal feed premixtures. Contact us to get more detailed information about our products and to find out more about the variety of applications. Our product stewardship and technical service team is pleased to offer support and provide a solution for your application.
