New product: Greek clay-rich diatomaceous earth, 20 microns

Greek clay-rich diatomaceous earth is mined from selected areas in Thessaly. It is a natural mixture of diatoms and clays in a ratio of approximately 50%–50%.

It is a completely natural product: non-toxic, non-corrosive, acid-resistant and entirely harmless. The majority of it consists of amorphous silicon dioxide.

In terms of geological conditions and composition, it is similar to the Danish clay-rich diatomites (moller), which are world-renowned for their multiple uses in industry, agriculture and livestock farming due to their high absorbency (they are mined on the islands of Fur, Mors and Nordsalling in Denmark).

The criterion for absorbency is the specific surface area of the grains, which is 53.4 m²/g, slightly greater than that of Danish diatomites, which is around 50 m²/g according to an analysis by the National Centre for Technology and Development (EKETA).
