PerMix Applications
White snus has become one of the fastest-growing nicotine products in the world, and behind every perfectly blended pouch is a manufacturing process that demands precision, safety, and repeatability. What looks simple on the shelf—soft, white, consistently flavored—actually requires one of the most carefully engineered powder-liquid mixing sequences in the industry.
White snus formulations combine ultra-light cellulose powders, salts, humectants, binders, nicotine solutions, and flavor additives. Each ingredient has its own behavior, its own volatility, and its own tendency to clump, segregate, or create dust hazards. To manufacture white snus at scale, producers need a mixing system capable of controlling powder flow, dispersing liquids without agglomeration, and maintaining a sealed, explosion-proof environment.
This is exactly where PerMix has become the leader.
White snus production begins with a dry powder base—usually plant-derived cellulose blended with salts, stabilizers, pH modifiers, humectants, and performance additives. These powders are light, fluffy, and incredibly sensitive to agitation and airflow.
Once the base is prepared, the critical stage begins:
introducing nicotine, flavorings, and other liquids into a powder bed that desperately wants to clump the moment moisture hits it. If introduced too quickly, the mix forms sticky balls. Too slowly, and flavor distribution becomes inconsistent. All the while, airborne dust and aerosolized nicotine pose inhalation and explosion risks.
After the liquid phase is incorporated, the blend must become uniform, soft, and homogeneous without generating heat, segregating, or damaging delicate aromatics. Every pouch in every batch must taste and perform identically.
This is why the snus industry moved beyond conventional ribbon or paddle mixers. The physics of white snus simply demand more.
A Fluidized Zone Mixer creates a dynamic “weightless” environment where powders lift, tumble, and circulate freely. Instead of compressing or smearing ingredients together, the mixer suspends them—opening every particle to receive liquids evenly.
This offers several critical advantages for snus:
In short: fluidization matches the physical behavior of white snus ingredients. It lets powders mix on their own terms.
PerMix has engineered dedicated single-shaft and dual-shaft Fluidized Zone Mixers specifically for white snus production, blending product knowledge with safety-driven design.
White snus powders, nicotine aerosols, and flavor vapors present both inhalation and ignition risks. PerMix mixers are built as sealed, explosion-proof systems with the correct ATEX/ExP classifications for the environment.
Features include:
Safety is engineered into every weld.
PerMix integrates:
The result is a perfectly uniform powder-liquid matrix—no wet spots, no lumps, no rework.
Fluidized zone technology delivers:
Consistency is not only achieved—it’s achieved every batch.
White snus producers need to avoid cross-contamination between flavors and strengths. PerMix supports this with:
A clean mixer keeps brands compliant and the product premium.
Whether a producer needs:
PerMix uses the same mixing mechanics and geometries across all capacities. That guarantees repeatability and simplifies scale-up—no process surprises as you grow.
PerMix mixers don’t just blend white snus—they solve the challenges that define the industry:
White snus production is a demanding process. PerMix engineered the exact mixers it requires.
From cellulose powders to nicotine solutions, from flavor dispersions to final moisture balancing, PerMix delivers the fastest, cleanest, most precise white snus mixing technology available.
Our Single-Shaft and Dual-Shaft Fluidized Zone Mixers have become the global benchmark because they offer what no other system can:
perfect mixing, perfect safety, and perfect repeatability—batch after batch.
