Alabaster Brillantweiss is a hig purity, white grade of natural gypsum which is used as a filler and pigment in the paper industry, and as a filler in construction material formulations.

Paper	Gypsum is used in the paper industry, as a filler or pigment for paper coating. Normally a very fine grade of white gypsum is required in this application. Gypsum should be free from abrasive materials to ensure a smooth surface coating aspect.
Composites, resins, rubber, PVC	Gypsum is used as a filler in a variety of substances, to add bulk, increase rigidity or provide reinforcement, or to give a particular shape and aspect to the finished product. Adding gypsum can also increase the strength of the bond between mineral and plastic, increase resistance to abrasion, and improve dispersibility.
Food	Formula proposes natural, high purity gypsum (Calcium Sulphate Dihydrate) products for use in the food industry, either as a food additive or as a food processing aid, in accordance with EU regulations.
Flooring Products	Plaster and gypsum are used in flooring applications, including floor screeds and levelling compounds.
Plaster based construction elements	Plaster is commonly used as the base material (binder) for the manufacturing of prefabricated construction elements for interior walls, ceilings and plaster blocks.
Construction Chemicals	Formula offers high quality plaster and uncalcined gypsum products for use in various construction products and chemicals.
Interior Wall Products	Plaster is a popular material for interior wall finishing.

Additive / Binder / Product Base

Plaster and gypsum products are used in a variety of formulations where they are added in small amounts to improve, strengthen, or in some way alter the finished formulation.
