Cassava Cat Litter

What Goes Into Every Bag

Food-grade tapioca starch — no soy protein, no wheat gluten. That single-ingredient base is what gives cassava litter its tighter gel bond and its hypoallergenic positioning in premium markets.

Draft ratios — confirm with production and request the CAS-level ingredient sheet with your samples.

Granule Size & Scent

• Fine granule 0.5–2.5 mm — the flagship formula: maximum absorption, hardest clumps
• Pellet 1.5 / 2.0 / 3.0 mm — trades a little absorption for near-zero tracking
• Custom 0.5–3.5 mm — tuned to your market’s tray habits and box designs

Natural white as standard, custom colours on request. Scent options: Odorless, Milk, Green Tea, Lavender, Peach, Baby Powder, Blueberry, Apple, Coffee, Jasmine, Lemon, Activated Carbon — all customizable.

Note the uncoloured white granule: it makes blood in urine visible, turning an ordinary litter into an early health warning your end customer can actually see. It is one of the most repeatable selling points in the category.

Quantified Benefits

• 3-Second Clumping* — starch gels on contact, no artificial binders needed
• ≥300% Water Absorption* — full uptake within 30 seconds, nothing reaches the tray floor*
• ≤0.13% Dust* — five-stage filtration, well below the 0.5% industry norm*
• Clump Strength ≥35 N* — lifts clean, survives ten handling cycles*
• ~50% Lighter Than Bentonite* — 600–650 g/L vs 950 g/L, so more bags per container and easier carrying for your customer
• Flushable & Biodegradable — breaks down in water within ~20 minutes, ≥92% soil biodegradation in 28 days*
• Soy-Free & Wheat-Gluten-Free — the hypoallergenic USP standard tofu litter cannot claim

Packaging & Loading

Bag formats: self-supporting, flat-bottom, woven, vacuum, fin-lap seal, plastic barrel, ton bag. Sizes: 6L (2.5kg) · 8L (3.5kg) · 10L (4.5kg) · 12L (5kg) — custom on request. Bulk supply for local repackaging available.

Loading reference: cassava is volume-limited, not weight-limited. At 600–650 g/L a 20GP fills by space at roughly 17.5 tonnes*. For a standard 2.5 kg vacuum bag that means about 5,500–6,000 bags floor-loaded, or around 4,800 bags palletised*. Ask sales for the exact loading plan against your bag drawing.

Which Markets Choose Cassava

Cassava is the fastest-growing segment inside natural clumping litter. It fits buyers whose customers already know tofu litter and are trading up — Japan, Korea, Southeast Asia, and the eco-led shelves of Germany, the UK and the Netherlands. If your market’s complaint is “clumps fall apart” or “too much dust”, lead with cassava. If the complaint is price, lead with bentonite and stock cassava as the premium tier.
