Premium Egyptian white kaolin clay, hard and massive in raw form. Sourced from the Eastern Desert for ceramics, paper coating, and industrial applications.
Kaolin is the primary clay mineral in fine porcelain and ceramic bodies. It provides whiteness, plasticity during forming, and structural integrity during firing at high temperatures.
Used as a coating pigment and filler in paper manufacturing, kaolin improves brightness, smoothness, and printability. A major industrial application globally in coated printing papers.
Kaolin acts as an extender and opacity pigment in paint formulations, and as a reinforcing filler in rubber compounds. Improves texture, durability, and reduces cost per unit.
Pharmaceutical-grade kaolin is used as an anti-caking agent, excipient in tablet formulations, and as an active ingredient in anti-diarrhoeal preparations.
Fine-ground kaolin is used in face powders, foundations, masks, and dry shampoos for its absorbent properties, smooth texture, and inert, skin-safe chemistry.
