Attapulgite clay consists primarily of hydrous aluminum silicates (clay minerals) of varying composition.
Diatomaceous earth are sedimentary rock composed of diatoms, that formed in a freshwater lake over thousands of years.
Our Attapulgite clay and Diatomaceous earth raw ore, have the potential to provide natural solutions for existing and new applications in a way that nature intended - ecologically sustainability.
