Our winemaking chemicals cover additions to the wine itself and the products that keep a cellar clean. On the fermentation side there is Actiflore BO213 yeast in 500g packs, Nutristart yeast nutrient in 1kg to help prevent stuck or sluggish ferments, and AntiflorFlorstop sachets (45 per box) to stop flor yeast growth during barrel storage.
For acid and pH work, tartaric acid comes in 1kg packets, with malic DL Isegen for warm-climate fruit low in natural malic acid, plus lactic, citric and ascorbic acid. Ascorbic acid is typically used with SO₂ to protect white and rosé wines from oxidation, while potassium carbonate 99.5% is available for deacidification. Sulphur comes as potassium metabisulfite, metabisulphate powder in 1kg, Solfosol liquid SO₂ in 1-litre bottles, effervescent tablets (42 per box) and sulphur strips for barrels and tanks.
For cleaning and plant maintenance, we supply chemicals from Brenntag including sodium hydroxide flakes and solution for CIP, potassium hydroxide, nitric acid 60% for passivating stainless steel, phosphoric acid, hydrogen peroxide 50% and glycol for cooling systems.
