The diatom's natural amorphous silica shell gives this powder its unique structure and performance.
Silica is a naturally occurring mineral that forms the hard outer shell of these diatoms. The rigid, porous design allows the powder to effectively absorb moisture, which is why it is commonly used as a natural anti-caking agent in powdered products. Because the silica structure does not dissolve in liquid, it remains stable and consistent in formulation.
Variations in colour occur naturally; darker shades often indicate the presence of additional minerals such as iron or clay, reflecting the geological diversity of the source deposit.
