Using Silica-Based Products for Food and Drug Applications

Did you know that silica is not only used to make glass and cement, but it’s also used in the food and drug industry?
That’s right! During the manufacturing process functionalized silica gels are used in the purification steps as they don’t interfere with the final product’s review or approval by the FDA. In fact, SiliCycle has a large portfolio of clients that have received FDA approvals while using our products.
