Type: [TBC: sodium or calcium bentonite]
Fine 200–300 mesh bentonite powder graded by viscosity and gel strength for drilling mud, foundry casting, paper manufacturing, and industrial applications.
Our bentonite powder is milled to 200–300 mesh — the sweet spot for drilling fluids, foundry sand bonding, and industrial formulations. Consistent particle size means predictable performance: the viscosity and gel strength you measured last month will be the same in this month's delivery.

Packing Options
Radhe Enterprise supplies Bentonite Powder to fertilizer manufacturers across India as a fine granulation binder and sulphur-bentonite feedstock. Every lot ships with batch documentation so your granulation line and declared product analysis stay consistent, run after run.
Sodium bentonite swells many times its size in water and forms a seal or gel; calcium bentonite barely swells and is valued as an absorbent carrier. That one property decides who buys each grade.
| Sodium bentonite | Calcium bentonite | |
|---|---|---|
| Key behaviour | Swells strongly, forms gel and low-permeability seal | Low swell, high absorbency, holds liquids |
| Granule uses | Pond, lake and canal sealing; borehole and well annulus sealing; landfill and geosynthetic clay liners; clumping cat litter | Carrier granules for pesticides, bio-fertilizers and micronutrients (10x20, 16x35 mesh); soil conditioner; non-clumping litter; oil and spill absorbent |
| Powder uses | Drilling mud (oil, water well, HDD); iron ore pelletizing binder (75 micron); foundry green sand; sulphur-bentonite fertilizer (90:10); diaphragm wall and piling slurry; wine and juice fining | Fertilizer granulation binder; bleaching earth after acid activation (edible oil refining); ceramics; cosmetics and face packs |
| Main buyers | Drilling contractors, steel and pellet plants, foundries, cat litter brands, pond and landfill contractors, GCL makers, sulphur fertilizer makers | Agrochemical and bio-fertilizer formulators, NPK plants, oil refineries, ceramic and cosmetic makers |
| Tests buyers ask for | Swell index (ml/2g), gel/viscosity, fluid loss, moisture, mesh | Absorption (oil/water), crush strength, mesh, moisture, pH, dust |
Much “sodium bentonite” sold in India is calcium bentonite treated with soda ash (activated sodium). Ask for the swell index (ml/2g) and whether a grade is natural or activated before you order.

Request Quote NowRadhe Enterprise Bentonite Powder is finely ground to 200–300 mesh and graded by viscosity and gel strength, meeting the demanding specifications of drilling fluid companies, foundries, paper mills, and industrial users. Our Gujarat-based manufacturing ensures competitive pricing with reliable, large-volume supply capability backed by per-batch quality testing.
Bentonite powder is produced by selecting high-quality bentonite ore from Gujarat mines, drying it to reduce moisture below 10%, then grinding it through industrial ball mills to achieve 200–300 mesh fineness. The powder is air-classified for particle size consistency, tested for viscosity, swelling capacity, moisture, and pH, then packed in moisture-resistant bags with inner liners.
Choosing the right Bentonite Powder for your operation means matching technical fit, total landed cost, and how the material behaves after transport and storage. Start by confirming the end use: industrial buyers should validate sieve analysis, moisture, swell where relevant, and any certificate expectations from your customer or plant QA. Retail and distributor buyers should prioritize dust profile, odor control, bag integrity, and consistent granule size so shelf display and consumer experience stay predictable. Ask your supplier for lot traceability, typical moisture at dispatch, and recommended storage away from direct rain and standing water. Compare factory-direct terms versus trader stock: direct manufacturing often improves freshness, specification control, and packaging options for private label. Review bulk discounts and whether jumbo or retail pack sizes align with your logistics. Finally, pilot a smaller batch before scaling annual contracts so you can validate performance on your line or in your channel without committing full volume upfront. Radhe Enterprise supports technical questions and can align grades to your process once you share application details and delivery geography.
Oil and water well drilling mud is a core use case where Bentonite Powder delivers measurable results.

Powder grades such as Bentonite Powder are often compared with coarser fillers or alternate minerals that trade off surface area, reactivity, and flow in your process. Lower-cost powders can introduce unwanted fines or inconsistent mesh retention, which shows up as quality drift in drilling mud, ceramics, or formulation work. A controlled 200–300 mesh product from a Gujarat processing line typically offers better repeatability when your QA checks mesh residue and moisture batch-to-batch.
Our standard bentonite powder is 200–300 mesh, which is the specification required for drilling mud, foundry casting, paper manufacturing, and most industrial applications. Custom mesh sizes can be produced for specific requirements — for example, finer powder (325+ mesh) for cosmetics or coarser (100–200 mesh) for certain civil engineering applications.
Yes, our finely ground bentonite powder (300 mesh) is suitable as a cosmetics base material. Its natural absorbency and smooth texture make it ideal for face masks, body wraps, and skincare formulations. We offer cosmetic-grade specifications with enhanced whiteness and finer particle size on request. Contact our team for cosmetic-grade samples and specifications.
The minimum order quantity is [TBC: MOQ]. For bulk buyers requiring 10 MT or more per month, we offer preferential pricing and scheduled delivery contracts. We supply in 25 kg bags, 50 kg bags, and 1 MT jumbo bags with inner moisture liners to protect product quality during transport and storage.
Every production batch undergoes testing for moisture content, mesh analysis (confirming 200–300 mesh distribution), swell index, pH, and apparent viscosity (for drilling grades). Our air classification system ensures consistent particle size distribution. Batch-wise test certificates are provided with every order.
