Established to meet the growing demand for high-performance purification products in the region, the company is primarily engaged in the production and export of magnesium silicate filter aids, widely recognized under the MAGNESOL and DALSORB brand names.

Brief History

Dallas Qingdao Specialty Adsorbents Co., Ltd was established as part of a strategic expansion by The Dallas Group to localize production and reduce lead times in serving customers across Asia-Pacific. The Dallas Group itself was founded in 1959 in the United States and is one of the largest manufacturers of synthetic magnesium silicate in the world. The Qingdao facility was developed to align with rising regional demand in the edible oil, chemical, and food processing sectors.

Core Business

The company's core business is centered around the manufacturing of specialty adsorbents designed for purification, clarification, and filtration applications. It produces synthetic magnesium silicate that removes polar impurities, degradation products, and off-colors from edible oils, biodiesel, and other industrial liquids.
