O U C C E S S F U L candy manufacturers have discovered they ^ can make more—and better—candy because of ALCOA Activated Alumina. This commercially pure, highly inert adsorbent eliminates costly moisture problems—sticky materials, gummed-up machinery, deteriorated products—by continually maintaining the low, even humidity required in processing, hardening and packaging rooms. ALCOA Activated Alumina is a highly efficient and economical desiccant. With it, dew points as low as minus 100° F. —and even lower—can be maintained. Moreover, it will not swell, soften or disintegrate even when immersed in water . . . has high resistance to shock and abrasion . . . is nontoxic . . . non-corrosive . . . virtually iron-free. Because of these outstanding properties, food, candy and drug manufacturers all over the country rely on ALCOA Activated Alumina to maintain their production regardless of the zveather. Chemical, petroleum, air conditioning and oil maintenance men have found it equally effective in their businesses. Perhaps it can simplify your processes, speed up your production, improve the quality of your product. Let us tell you how.
