Roasted Nakumatt is the premium tier of roasted bentonite clay manufactured at our Thordi, Bhavnagar facility. The specialized Nakumatt-grade roasting process — using slightly reducing kiln conditions — creates an exceptionally hard, crush-resistant granule with enhanced mineral profile (higher Ca, Mg, Zn, Mn) and deeper earthy notes. As an edible roasted clay, Nakumatt is prized by connoisseurs for its firmer, crunchier texture and more pronounced earthy aroma.
Our Bhavnagar facility ships Nakumatt in regular container loads to Kenya, Tanzania, South Africa, and the Middle East. International buyers choose Nakumatt for its superior performance in pharmaceutical toxin binding (higher CEC of 70–100 meq/100g means more binding sites per gram), aquaculture feed pellet durability (harder granules maintain integrity longer in water — critical for slow-feeding species like shrimp and carp), and broodstock nutrition programs (enhanced minerals support egg quality, fertilization rates, and fry survival).
For pharmaceutical and medical buyers, Nakumatt's enhanced porosity provides maximum aflatoxin and heavy metal binding capacity. Modified Nakumatt composites with silver or zinc provide sustained antimicrobial activity in advanced wound dressings. For aquaculture operators, it delivers superior pond sealing, water treatment, and feed supplementation — all from one multi-purpose mineral manufactured in India's largest bentonite processing cluster.

Premium Edible Roasted Clay — Nakumatt Grade for Connoisseurs
For traditional roasted clay consumers, Nakumatt grade delivers a firmer, crunchier texture and deeper earthy aroma that connoisseurs specifically seek out. The specialized roasting process under slightly reducing kiln conditions creates the characteristic darker earth tone and enhanced mineral notes. It is the eating clay of choice in regions of India, Africa, and the Middle East where roasted clay consumption is deeply embedded in cultural traditions.
Medical & Pharmaceutical — Maximum Binding Efficiency
Nakumatt's higher CEC (70–100 meq/100g versus 60–90 for standard roasted clay) and enhanced porosity provide superior toxin-binding per gram — making it the preferred grade for pharmaceutical enterosorbent applications. It is specified in premium antidiarrheal formulations, advanced detox supplements, and as an excipient for controlled drug release. Ag/Zn-modified Nakumatt composites provide sustained antimicrobial activity in wound dressings.
Aquaculture — Engineered for Demanding Conditions
The superior granule hardness of Nakumatt grade means fish feed pellets maintain integrity longer in water — critical for shrimp, carp, and other slow-feeding species. The enhanced mineral profile (higher Ca, Mg, Zn, Mn) directly supports broodstock nutrition: egg quality, fertilization rates, and fry survival. As a mycotoxin binder (particularly aflatoxin-B1), it protects valuable broodstock from reproductive impairment.
We typically ship 2–4 containers (40–80 MT) of Nakumatt per month to Kenya, Tanzania, and South Africa. African aquaculture operators, pharmaceutical buyers, and edible clay distributors have been repeat customers because Nakumatt performs consistently after the long supply chain.

What makes Roasted Nakumatt the premium grade?
Nakumatt undergoes a specialized roasting process under slightly reducing kiln conditions, creating harder granules, enhanced mineral profile (higher Ca, Mg, Zn, Mn), higher CEC (70–100 meq/100g), and deeper earthy notes. As an edible clay, it offers a firmer, crunchier texture. In pharmaceutical and aquaculture applications, the enhanced porosity and mineral content deliver superior performance in toxin binding, pellet durability, and broodstock nutrition.
How does Nakumatt support fish fertility and broodstock nutrition?
The enhanced minerals (Ca, P, Zn, Mn, Cu) in Nakumatt are bioavailable to fish and directly support reproductive health. Research confirms dietary bentonite improves egg quality, fertilization rates, fry survival, and growth metrics. As a mycotoxin binder, it protects broodstock from aflatoxin-induced reproductive impairment. Nakumatt's superior pellet water stability also means more nutrients reach the fish rather than leaching into pond water.
Which countries do you export Roasted Nakumatt to?
We ship 2–4 containers (40–80 MT) monthly to Kenya, with additional volumes to Tanzania, South Africa, UAE, Saudi Arabia, and Nepal. African buyers include edible clay distributors, pharmaceutical companies, aquaculture feed mills, and industrial users. All exports include complete documentation from Gujarat ports.
Is Nakumatt suitable for pharmaceutical applications?
Yes. Nakumatt's enhanced porosity and higher CEC (70–100 meq/100g) make it the preferred grade for pharmaceutical enterosorbent applications — binding aflatoxins, heavy metals, and pathogenic bacteria with maximum efficiency per gram. It is also used as an excipient for controlled drug release. Modified Nakumatt composites (Ag/Zn) provide antimicrobial activity in wound dressings.
