Fining Agents

In 2010 we have developed a new alliance with the Institut Oenologique de Champagne (IOC) in Eper­nay, France. This relationship has allowed us to sustain and improve the range of specialty fining agents in our portfolio.We believe you will like the change.

The origins of the IOC can to be traced back 120 years to the founding of the Entrepôt Général de la Cham­pagne in 1890. In 1905, a laboratory (which became the IOC) was established to carry out the work of yeast selection and preparation. Over the years the product lines expanded together with the territory covered. Although the IOC has maintained and expanded its roots in Champagne (with locations in Epernay, Bar-sur- Seine and Reims), it now also has two facilities in Burgundy (including Nuits St.Georges), two in Provence (including Châteauneuf-du-Pape) and one each in Chablis, Tain l’Hermitage, Savoie and Languedoc. The IOC offers a variety of wine processing products including gelatins, caseinates and a range of other items.
