Zeolite is widely used in everyday life for indoor odor control, pet environments, houseplants, and more.

Home & Pet

Home & Pet

Inside the home, in pet areas, in the garden, in the trunk of a vehicle — there are more everyday environments where odor and moisture become a problem than you might expect.

Natural clinoptilolite zeolite is evaluated in these living environments as a material for odor-control support, moisture adsorption, and improving the environment around pets. As a chemical-free, naturally mineral-based material, it is drawing attention for household and pet applications as well.

Detailed Applications

Indoor Odor & Moisture Control

Introduces how zeolite is used as a supporting material for managing odor and moisture in indoor spaces such as shoe cabinets, storage rooms, bathrooms, and refrigerators. → Indoor Odor & Moisture Control

Pet Odor Removal

Explains how zeolite is evaluated as a supporting material for reducing the components that cause odor in the environment around dogs and cats. → Pet Odor Removal

Cat Litter Additive

Explains how the supporting effect of reducing ammonia-type odor is evaluated when zeolite is mixed into cat litter. → Cat Litter Additive

Houseplants & Gardening

Introduces how zeolite is used as a potting-mix blend or as a supporting material for improving water retention. → Houseplants & Gardening

Household Spill Cleanup

Explains how zeolite is evaluated as a supporting material for adsorbing and handling liquid spills such as household oils, sauces, and beverages. → Household Spill Cleanup

Notes on Home & Pet Use

As a household material, zeolite is naturally mineral-based, but actual performance can vary depending on space size, ventilation, humidity, and the components causing the odor. Direct ingestion by pets requires a separate safety review.

Home & Pet

Inside the home, in pet areas, in the garden, in the trunk of a vehicle — there are more everyday environments where odor and moisture become a problem than you might expect.

KMI natural clinoptilolite zeolite is evaluated in these living environments as a material for odor-control support, moisture adsorption, and improving the environment around pets. It is a naturally mineral-based material with 97.0% purity, and it has passed the EN-71-3 European toy safety standard (PASS) and been found compliant with California Prop 65, confirming its safety for in-home use. It is also recognized as a USFDA GRAS material and is generally classified as a safe substance.

It leverages the principle by which a microporous structure (pore diameter 4.0–7.0 Å) adsorbs ammonia-type odor components and moisture, while a large contact area provided by a specific surface area of 40.0 m²/g contributes to odor-control and moisture-absorption performance. For household use, various particle sizes are evaluated according to the application.
