Advantages of Fine Granule Products

  • Balanced surface area and flowability — easier to handle than powder with less dust
  • Advantageous for media-bed configurations and refillable use
  • Broadly applicable across consumer, agricultural, and water-treatment uses
  • Suitable as a raw material for consumer products such as cat litter and deodorizing pouches

Certification Status (Important for Consumer & Agricultural Use)

Certification/RegistrationDetails
EN-71-3European toy safety standard PASS → safe for pet and child environments
California Prop 65Compliant with carcinogen warning requirements
OMRI ListedKMI-10365, approved for organic use → suitable for organic soil amendment
USFDA GRASRecognized as Generally Recognized As Safe

Points to Consider

  • In filtration systems, flow rate and residence time should be evaluated together.
  • When blending into cat litter, verify the mixing ratio with existing litter (10–30%) and its effect on clumping strength.
  • For soil amendment, the mixing ratio needs to be adjusted according to plant type and growing-media composition.
  • For water treatment, the replacement cycle varies with the target water quality and operating conditions.

Packaging Units
