Our company is engaged in the implementation and sale of certified natural zeolite of European origin and Greek aluminous diatomite. The zeolite content in clinoptilolite for agricultural and livestock use is at least 85% and is available in various granulometries depending on its use. Our goal is to spread the innumerable applications of these natural inert minerals, resulting in the immediate benefit of their properties in areas such as agriculture, livestock farming, the environment and human health. We ship the same day across Greece and the rest of Europe from our warehouse in Thessaloniki and Nea Orestiada. We offer wholesale and retail prices.

G. Pavlidis is determined to take the Zeolite issue forward

Regional Governor Giorgos Pavlidis has a packed schedule; as we all know, he works tirelessly, and a single phone call on Saturday morning meant he had to deal three matters: the TAP pipeline, zeolite and the manufacture of Greek machinery, which must now earn the trust of the Greek people. He informed us, whilst returning from Kavala, that regarding the TAP pipeline there are some difficulties in bringing the discussions to a successful conclusion; however, as he emphasised, the whole process is on the right track. Responding to a question about zeolite, he explained that, through microparticle processing, those who ... Read more

Precipitation of tartaric acid in wine and zeolites [French text]

La précipitation de tartre est un phénomène rejeté par le consommateur (dépréciation du goût, formation de lie). La précipitation tartrique demeure le principal problème de dépôts dans les vins. D’où la nécessité de limiter ces précipitations, c’est ce que l’on appelle la stabilisation tartrique. Pourquoi y a-t-il des précipitations tartriques dans le vin ? L’acide tartrique réagit avec le potassium pour donner du tartrate de potassium (KHT), et avec le calcium pour donner du tartrate neutre de calcium (CaT). Si les teneurs en KHT ou en CaT sont supérieures à la solubilité limite à une température donnée, il y a ... Read more

Removal of boron and arsenic from petrochemical waste using zeolite as an adsorbent

Enhancing the removal of arsenic, boron and heavy metals in groundwater-fed wetlands using various mass-support media

The presence of arsenic and heavy metals in drinking water sources poses a serious health risk due to chronic toxicological effects. Constructed wetlands have the potential to remove arsenic and heavy metals, but little is known about pollutant removal efficiency and reliability of wetlands for this task. This lab-scale study investigated the use of vertical subsurface flow constructed wetlands for removing arsenic, boron, copper, zinc, iron and manganese from synthetic wastewater. Gravel, limestone, zeolite and cocopeat were employed as wetland media. Conventional gravel media only showed limited capability in removing arsenic, iron, copper and zinc; and it showed virtually no ... Read more

zeolite and cosmetology – aesthetics – N. Lygeros [text]

One of the areas of application for zeolite that allows for vertical production as well as added value is that of cosmetology and aesthetics. We are already aware of many applications that exploit the molecular sieve property of zeolite, and in particular clinoptilolite. We should therefore not limit ourselves to these applications, especially when they can maximise its utilisation. Clinoptilolite’s ability to act at a molecular level allows us to consider applications – and indeed patents – through chemistry, without, however, suffering the consequences associated with synthetic materials. With natural zeolite, we can remain within the realm of natural products ... Read more

Heating with solar cells and zeolite – Long-term storage

Heating with solar cells and zeolite – Long-term storage Researchers at the University of Stuttgart in Germany are set to test a solar heating system with long-term storage capabilities as part of the “Solspaces”, a three-year programme launched in March 2012. The system is based on a solarthermal system operating in conjunction with a sorption tank, where the heat collected by the solar cells during the warmer months is stored until it is used when temperatures drop. The Solspaces concept can help reduce the storage space required for solar thermal systems and effectively address the issue of retaining heat for ... Read more

Greek quality and innovation – Nikos Lygeros

Greek quality and innovation – Nikos Lygeros When you have a country like our homeland and you wonder what you can do, it is simply a matter of intelligence – or rather, a lack thereof. Greece is characterised by the sun and the sea, which are vast sources of energy. We now know that we have large reserves of hydrocarbons and, through our Exclusive Economic Zone, we can exploit them rationally and strategically. We also have high-quality zeolite, and in large quantities at that; in its form as clinoptilolite , it has a vast array of applications across many sectors. ... Read more
