Purpose-Engineered for Cleansing Formulations

Each mineral is processed and graded for optimal performance in soap and detergent manufacturing.

Talc — Soap Grade
Primary Filler

The primary filler in toilet soaps — provides smoothness, silky lather feel, and body. Reduces cracking during drying and acts as an extender, reducing expensive fatty acid usage by 15–40%. Improves mold release for efficient production.

Applications

  • Toilet soap (15–35% loading)
  • Hand soap bars
  • Medicated soap
  • Hotel amenity soaps

Available Grades

  • 100 mesh
  • 150 mesh
  • 200 mesh

Key Properties

  • Whiteness >85%
  • Low grit for smooth skin feel
  • Silky lather enhancement
  • Excellent mold release
Kaolin (China Clay)
Detergent Filler

Filler in detergent bars and cakes — provides hardness and bulk for durable laundry products. Serves as a gentle abrasive in cleaning formulations and provides opacity in liquid detergents with good binding properties.

Applications

  • Laundry bars (20–40% loading)
  • Detergent cakes
  • Liquid detergent formulations
  • Cleaning powder compounds

Key Properties

  • Hardness and bulk addition
  • Gentle abrasive action
  • Opacity in liquid formulations
  • Good binding properties
PCC (Precipitated Calcium Carbonate)
Abrasive & Filler

Mild abrasive in scouring powders and pastes, providing effective cleaning action without scratching surfaces. Functions as a cost-effective filler in detergent powders and a pH buffer maintaining alkalinity for optimal cleaning performance.

Applications

  • Scouring powders and pastes
  • Detergent powder formulations
  • Surface cleaning compounds
  • Bulk filler in economy products

Key Properties

  • Mild abrasive action
  • Scratch-free cleaning
  • pH buffer (alkalinity control)
  • Cost-effective bulk addition
