Ultra-pure grades within a large product range

CECA has specifically developed for the pharmaceutical industry, a range of activated carbons with porous structures adapted to your requirements. These ultra-pure grades improve the productivity of your purificationstages without risking the contamination of finished products.

These activated carbons comply with the purity criteria of the latest monograph of the current American pharmacopoeia (USP) listed on technical data sheet.

All CECA activated carbons produced by the Parentis-en-Born (France) plant comply with the Food Chemical Codex (FCC).

Essential criteria for selecting an activated carbon:The porosity (micro-, meso- or macroporosity), the activation level, purity, pH, filterability.
