PUC colloid mills are robust, tried and

tested solutions with high operational availability
over a long life cycle.

Around the world, users in the chem- In laboratories, pilot plants and pro-
ical, cosmetic, pharmaceutical, food duction PUC colloid mills are used
and lubricant industries count on for the following technical processing
PUC’s experience and unique know- tasks:
how, gained over decades.
• micro-comminution
• homogenising
• dispersing
• denodulisation
• emulsifying
organic and inorganic substances
with a wide range of viscosity.

PUC colloid mills are available in

various application-oriented types:
PUC 60, O, E and EL.
