Cat Litter Material Comparison
Cassava, tofu, corn, wheat straw, walnut shell, bentonite blends and pH health-monitoring litter — side by side, so you can see what each one actually does in the litter box. We make all of them ourselves in Qingdao, China and Tay Ninh, Vietnam, and any of them can carry your brand.
Your brand on our formula — from sample to full container
We run the factory ourselves, so the formula, the granule, the scent and the bag are all made here — and there is no middleman in the price. Packaging design is free, we help with the paperwork, and the quality standards go into the contract.
Material performance comparison
These are real numbers from our own QC lab and SGS reports. Ranges are our standard grades — if you need something different, we can tune it.

Which material for which cat
Different cats make different messes. Here is what each material is actually good at, and the problem it takes off an owner's hands.
Cassava
For kittens who still taste everything, and for homes where someone has a cough that never quite goes away. There is nothing in it but corn and cassava starch — no binder, no perfume, no stone powder — and it is the only litter we make that tests 100% dust-free. The white colour also means you notice blood in urine or stool the same day it appears.
Tofu
Solves the two things owners give up on: the box that smells by Wednesday, and clumps that fall apart when you scoop them. The activated-charcoal grade holds odor in a three-cat home; the columns are light, so a big bag is not a fight to carry upstairs.
Corn
For cats who bury deeply and owners who are tired of refilling. The crushed granule soaks up more per scoop, so the box lasts longer, and the whole thing goes down the toilet — which matters when you live three floors up with no bin outside the door.
Wheat straw
For owners who read the ingredient list before they buy. Straw left over from the harvest, nothing added — no fragrance, no dye. The 6 mm pellets are too big to wedge between toes, so they stay in the box instead of on the floor.
Walnut shell
The answer to litter tracked down the hallway. At 700 g/L it is the heaviest thing we make — long-haired cats carry it out on their coat far less, and the polished edges do not catch on paw pads. Naturally dark, so soiled areas stay out of sight.
Bentonite & cassava
For the shopper who wants to leave clay behind but not the price. Half the dust, no cement ring welded to the bottom of the pan, and a box that stops smelling like a box — while still clumping as hard as the clay they are used to.
Health monitoring
For cats who hide illness until it is late — older cats, cats with a urinary history, cats after surgery. The granule changes colour when urine pH shifts, so the owner sees a problem in the litter box days before the cat shows it.
