Organic Compliant Antifoams
We manufacture a specific line of antifoams for use in organic food processing. The Magrabar Organic 3000 Series of products are registered with the Washington State Department of Agriculture (WSDA) and appear on the WSDA Brand Name Materials List. This list is utilized by a wide range of organic food certification agencies to determine the acceptability of processing aids for use in organic food processing.
Our National Organic Program (NOP) compliant antifoams are useful for air release in jams and preserves, and very effective in controlling foam and improving productivity in:
- Soy processing (milk and tofu)
- Dairy processing (whey, milk, cheese, yogurt, ice cream)
- Beverages (juice, tea, soda, protein drinks)
- Vegetable, fruit, and egg washing
- Potato processing
Magrabar products improve the throughput of organic processes where foaming is a problem. Process vessels can be filled higher, pumping is more efficient, and messy and costly overflowing vessels and containers are avoided.
The ingredients of these antifoams also appear on EPA List 4 – Inerts of Minimal Concern. Materials appearing on this list are allowed as antifoam adjuvants (inert ingredients) for use in pesticides for organic crop and livestock production under the NOP. Product emulsifiability varies across the series.
Magrabar's organic compliant antifoams are allergen free, free of any animal derived products, GMO free, and certified Kosher and Halal.
MAGRABAR MD-3000 is powder form antifoam suitable for use in organic foods. Effective in carbohydrate and protein process streams, it can be blended into other dry powders to provide antifoaming action during reconstitution.
MAGRABAR MD-3000 is formulated with natural waxes, certified organic vegetable oil, maltodextrin, emulsifiers and silicon dioxide. All components are certified organic or appear on the National List of the NOP in Title 7 CFR Part 205. The oil, waxes, and emulsifiers used in MAGRABAR MD–3000 are certified by their manufacturers to be derived from non-genetically modified crops. No NOP prohibited methods are used in the manufacture of the product. It's also formulated to be allergen-free under the Food Allergen Labeling and Consumer Protection Act.
