RICE HULLS
Parboiled Rice Hulls & Ground Rice Hulls
Rice Hulls are a natural, renewable plant material useful in a wide variety of applications including plant potting media in the greenhouse and nursery industry, pressing aid in the extraction of fruit juices, and tableting aid (excipient) in pharmaceutical products. They are particularly well suited to these applications due to the washing and heat treatment received in the parboiling process.
Rice hulls are also used as a fiber source, premix, and pellet binder in the animal feed industry. Rice hulls are currently used in composite materials as fiber in injection molding and extrusion processes. Rice hulls have been used as a carrier and extender for other products as well. Additionally, rice hulls are a great substitute for products containing wood fiber, wood flour, or wood shavings.
