Brewer’s Fiber | Natural Modifier

    • Brewer’s Fiber is an upcycled, organic powder derived from food-grade brewer’s spent grain.

      • Specifically formulated for molded fiber products like trays, clamshells, plates, and protective packaging.

      • Offers a functional, cost-effective way to reduce virgin pulp usage while improving product performance.

    • Improves fiber bonding and form stability

      • Enhances wet and dry strength

      • Reduces energy usage during drying

      • Supports compostability and clean-label claims

      • Helps meet cost reduction and sustainability goals

    • Moisture: < 4%

    • Particle Size:

      • D50: ~395µm

      • D90: ~945µm

    • Loose Density: ~0.20 g/cc
