Bentonite is a naturally occurring clay mineral formed through the weathering of volcanic ash and consists primarily of montmorillonite. The offered calcium bentonite is characterised by a high montmorillonite content of at least 80% and an especially fine particle size (<63 µm).
A key characteristic of bentonite is its fine, plate-like structure, which provides a large specific surface area. This results in a high binding capacity, making bentonite a valued mineral raw material in a wide range of applications.
Thanks to its fine and homogeneous consistency, the powder is easy to handle and can be applied evenly. Careful processing ensures consistently high quality and makes the product a reliable material for various uses.
Bentonite powder is used in different fields, for example in cosmetic applications as well as in garden and pond environments. The combination of fine milling, uniform structure and versatile usability makes calcium bentonite a flexible natural product.
The fine consistency allows for easy dosing and flexible use in both private and technical applications. Packed in an aluminium-free block bottom bag, the bentonite is easy to handle and, thanks to its resealable packaging, ideal for storage.
Application and Use
A helpful description
Bentonite powder is a versatile clay mineral used in a wide range of applications. Due to its fine, plate-like structure and large specific surface area, bentonite is able to bind various substances on its surface, making it suitable for numerous applications in both private and technical environments.
In the household, bentonite can be used for various purposes related to cleaning and processing. Its fine structure allows for even distribution and easy handling.
In garden and pond applications, bentonite is widely used as a mineral raw material. It is suitable, for example, for use in soil or water environments and is valued for its properties.
In cosmetic applications, bentonite is used as a natural raw material. Its fine milling and uniform consistency allow for easy processing in a variety of applications.
In technical applications, bentonite is also widely used. Due to its structure and properties, it is a proven material for a range of uses.
In addition, bentonite is used in other fields where a versatile mineral material is required.
The specific application may vary depending on the intended use. Before use, it should be checked whether the product is suitable for the desired purpose.
Handling and Storage
For Safe Use
Bentonite powder should be stored in a dry, cool place and kept tightly sealed to maintain its quality over time. The resealable packaging allows for easy handling and protects the product from external influences.
After use, the bag should be carefully closed to prevent moisture from entering. Due to its fine consistency, the powder should be handled with care to minimise dust formation.
For optimal storage, bentonite should be protected from direct sunlight and high humidity. When stored properly, the product remains stable and ready for use over the long term.
Depending on the application, suitable tools such as spoons or measuring aids can be used for clean and controlled handling.

Did you know? (FAQ)
Interesting Questions – Clear Answers
What is bentonite?
Bentonite is a naturally occurring clay mineral consisting mainly of montmorillonite.
What is bentonite used for?
Bentonite is used in a wide range of applications, including technical uses, household applications, gardening, moisture control and odor binding.
What makes bentonite special?
Bentonite has a high internal surface area as well as strong binding and swelling properties.
What structure does bentonite have?
Bentonite has a fine, plate-like mineral structure with a high specific surface area.
Is bentonite a natural product?
Yes, bentonite is a natural mineral without artificial additives.
What does montmorillonite content mean?
The montmorillonite content describes the proportion of the main mineral in bentonite and influences its typical properties.
Is bentonite finely milled?
Yes, bentonite powder is finely milled, making it easy to dose and highly versatile.
How should bentonite be stored?
Store in a dry place, tightly sealed and protected from moisture.
Is bentonite odorless?
Yes, bentonite is generally odorless.
Is bentonite also used for animals?
Yes, bentonite is also used in horse, dog and livestock environments.
Is there a difference between bentonite as a mineral and bentonite as a dietary supplement?
The mineral itself may be identical. However, the use of bentonite as a dietary supplement requires special testing and legal approval. Since these approvals are very costly, we offer and sell it exclusively as a mineral.
What is the difference between bentonite and zeolite?
Bentonite and zeolite are different natural minerals with distinct mineralogical structures and properties. Bentonite mainly consists of montmorillonite and is especially known for its strong swelling, water absorption and binding capacity. Zeolite, on the other hand, has a rigid microporous crystal structure with high adsorption properties and is commonly used for moisture, odor and substance binding.
