Mined in British Columbia, Canada
Diatomaceous Earth with Calcium Bentonite is a unique, naturally occurring diatomite deposit which contains a natural blend of food grade diatomaceous earth and calcium bentonite
This natural blend is one of only two of its kind in the world, and the only one of its kind in North America! Our Diatomaceous Earth with Calcium Bentonite.
Commonly used for:
INDUSTRIAL & AGRICULTURAL ABSORBENT
Absorbs up to 125% of its own weight in liquid.
FEED ADDITIVE
Used though out the United States by the Poultry, Dairy, Beef and Pork industries. Many backyard hobby activists also use our Diatomaceous Earth with Calcium Bentonite for their chickens and farm animals.
AMMONIA CONTROL
Controls odors
SOIL CONDITIONER
Helps hold and slowly release water, assists with retaining soil nutrients plus maintaining soil quality, and improves soil aeration and promotes root growth.

Mined from a naturally occurring mineral deposit in British Columbia, Canada, APL BENTONITES can be classified as the WORLD’S BEST BENTONITES.
Bentonite is a medium gray bentonite mined from a deposit near Princeton, British Columbia, Canada. This natural mineral deposit consists primarily of montmorillonite derived from pre-historic weathered volcanic ash.
Available Granulations:
Powder: -80 mesh
Fines: -36 mesh
Granular: -18 mesh
APL Bentonite has many uses, including the following:
FEED BINDING
Bentonite is used as a feed binder for livestock and poultry feeds. It is all natural, environmentally friendly and safe for all animals, with no antibiotics or chemicals added.
Bentonite can be used as a natural alternative to chemical feed binders.
SUBSTRATE STABILIZATION
Bentonite is used by several commercial Mushroom Growers in British Columbia as a growing medium to retain moisture.
The use of bentonite in operations, such as mushroom production, adds stability to compost and substrates used for growing mediums.
CLUMPING PET LITTER
APL Bentonite is the foundation of our scoopable pet litter products.
When used in pet litters, this bentonite provides a 99% dust free cat litter product, with excellent moisture, clumping, and odor control properties.
SEALANT
APL Bentonite is a high swelling bentonite that, when wet, swells, forming a water tight barrier.
Bentonite is often used by professional roofing companies as an emergency repair tool. In the case of an emergency repair situation, APL Bentonite can be applied to the damaged area and will work as a temporary sealant until further repairs can be made. APL Bentonite is an inexpensive and effective temporary solution that can help minimize water damage.
Mined in British Columbia, Canada
An oxidations product of lignite. Lignite is naturally formed from compressed vegetation or organic matter.
Commonly used for:
SOIL CONDITIONER
Helps hold and slowly release water, assists with retaining soil nutrients plus maintaining soil quality, and improves soil aeration and promotes root growth.
Mined in British Columbia, Canada
Belongs to a family of hydrated aluminosilicate minerals with a three-dimensional cage-like structure (similar to a honeycomb). These highly porous granular minerals effectively absorb ions and molecules.
Our Zeolite is a pure, natural mineral found in volcanic ash depositis from the mineral family heulandite-clinoptiilolite.
Commonly used for:
ARTIFICIAL TURF INFILL
Zeolite infill for artificial turf and pet grass captures ammonia and moisture helping eliminate pet odor from urine. Locks away odor
and moisture while cooling surface temperature.
INDUSTRIAL ABSORBENT
Quick on spills, Zeolites can absorb up to 70% of its weight in liquid. Will not break down in most liquids, prevents mud and traction loss creating a safer work environment.
TRACTION AID
This highly porous granular mineral does not dissolve in water or other inorganic solvents making it an excellent traction aid. Will not hurt the environment and is safe for vegetation and compost.
FEED ADDITIVE
This premium Clinoptilolite formula is for use as a flowing/anti-caking agent in an amount not to exceed
two percent (2%) of the finished feed.
AMMONIA CONTROL
Clinoptilolite Zeolites effectively absorb ions and molecules. Liquids are simply absorbed and odors are eliminated in minutes.
SOIL CONDITIONER
Helps hold and slowly release water, assists with retaining soil nutrients plus maintaining soil quality, and improves soil aeration and promotes root growth.
Diatomaceous Earth, Calcium Bentonite, Sodium Bentonite, Leonardite and Zeolite are commonly used in the following industries:
