We have specialized in the production of bentonite pellets for over 30 years. Our tenacious ingenuity has led to the development of a technologically advanced, biodegradable non-stick time release coating which allows the bentonite pellets to be poured into place through standing water without sticking together or bridging. This capability provides the highest density per cubic foot of any existing grouting method – wet or dry.
