The Material

Egyptian Ball Clay, specified for industry.

Quarried from the sandstone formations of Aswan and refined to meet the tolerances demanded by tile, sanitaryware and tableware producers worldwide.

High Plasticity

Fine particle composition guarantees exceptional workability and high unfired (green) strength (MOR ≥ 35.0 kgf/cm²) for safe handling.

Ideal Chemical Profile

An optimal, natural balance of Alumina (Al₂O₃) and Silica (SiO₂) with carefully managed iron and titanium impurities.

Flawless Firing

Naturally transitions to a highly durable, beautiful white or light cream / buff finish upon firing.

Consistency

Minimal dry and fired shrinkage, making it the perfect binder for ceramic tiles and sanitaryware.

Typical analysis
Al₂O₃26 – 30%
SiO₂55 – 62%
Fe₂O₃≤ 1.4%
TiO₂≤ 1.6%
L.O.I.8 – 10%

The Process

From the desert mountains to your kiln.

A controlled, four-stage process built around purity, consistency and traceability — so every shipment behaves the same on your line.

  1. 01

    Extraction

    Hydraulic mining in the sandstone mountains of Aswan, recovering raw ball clay seams with minimal disturbance to surrounding rock.

  2. 02

    Sieving & Slurry Mixing

    Raw material is dispersed in water and passed through fine sieves to remove sand, organics and oversize particles.

  3. 03

    Filter Pressing

    The refined slurry is filter-pressed into dense cakes, removing excess water down to specification moisture.

  4. 04

    Drying & Global Shipping

    Cakes are dried, milled to grade, and shipped in bags or bulk containers to ceramic factories on five continents.
