What is Absorbacide®?

Absorbacide® is the finest grade (<0.05mm) of our specially processed diatomite. Diatomaceous earth, also known as diatomite has been mined from sedimentary layers deposited millions of years ago in a fresh water lake.

It is light in weight, chalk like in appearance, very porous, and comprises siliceous fossils of plant algae. It consists primarily of amorphous silica as distinct from crystalline silica or quartz. Amorphous silica is much more soluble than crystalline silica and is not a health hazard.
