Overview
The largest established manufacturers and exporters of a wide range of
specialty clays in India, CUTCH OIL & ALLIED INDUSTRIES (1949) PRIVATE
LIMITED is also one of the most experienced and skilled player in the field
of organoclays, rheological additive, refined bentonites, china clays
(kaolins), attapulgites and cationic surfactants.
Established in 1949 in the clay rich belt of Kachchh Mandvi, Gujarat in
India, we commenced manufacturing operations of non-edible oils and value
added derivatives. Within a decade we steadily progressed
growing and efficient corporate entity. Armed with a strong in house R&D
and indigenolls technology, we rapidly amI steadfastly diversIfied our
operations around the clay rich resources of our corporate township Kachchh
Mandvi. India, into manufacturing and processing of value added refined
bentonite clays and technology intensive specialty organoclay gellants and
rheological additives under the present brand name 'Smectone' Clays.
Commensurate with the moving times. we effectively planned expansion and
prepared ourselves with strategically located units to take on the growing
overseas organoclay markets and to compete internationally with our
established quality 'Srnectone' organoclays and services in the global
arena. The company is today successfully and competitively establishing
itself an the growing global markets with indigenous technology and a full
range of quality products.
Our Products
We are manufacturers and exporters of organoclay, bentonite clay, refined
bentonites, china clays (kaolins), attapulgites and cationic surfactants.
Our product range includes :
SMECTONE® ORGANOCLAY :
These are superior and established import substitute rheological additives,
gellants and thickeners equivalent to internationally renowned organoclays
for all solvent borne systems, organic liquids and oils where thickening,
gelling, anti setting, anti sagging, body, tack and viscosity controlling
characteristics are desired.
The full Smectone Clay range performs effectively across the aliphatic and
aromatic blend of solvents, including low, low - medium, medium - high polarity range with activation as in conventional organoclays and
without activation for super and easy dispersion as in second generation
organoclays. Incorporation is simplified to yield consistency and uniformity
in major formulations with simple mechanical action (milling / shearing /
grinding) and with or without chemical activation (polar solvent) as
desired.
REFINED BENTONITES :
Selectively mined and blended, superior graded Bentonite Clays are
stringently processed for quality consistency and refined for specialty
performances to yield high viscosity, gelling and anti settling
characteristics in water and all aqueous formulations including coatings and
textured finishes and coatings.
We also manufacture and offer superior fine bentonites equivalent to IP /
BP specifications for Pharmaceutical, Cosmetic and Personal Care Products.
Special advantages and characteristics include purity, fine particle sizing,
lubricity, absorbancy, bonding strength and ease of dispersion tailored to
end user requirements. Ideally recommended for Feed Industry as Toxin
Binders.
PURE CHINA CLAYS / KAOLINS : These
are selectively mined and processed pure kaolin clays with microfine
particle sizing and high kaolinitic content of consistent quality and purity
for filler, art material, ceramic, FRP, zeolites and construction chemical
industries. Also offer superfine HRC clays for specialty automotive tyre and
rubber industries.
BENGEL CLAYS : These are
selectively mined, blended and processed refined specialty clays of the
montmorillonite attapulgite - ball clay family specially processed and
micronized to yield fine particle sizing, controlled gelling, antisettling,
plasiticity and thixotropic characteristics in all aqueous and alcohol /
water based formulations are a wide PH range their uses are in textured
finishes & coating, water based coatings, gels, foundry chemicals,
washes, pharmaceuticals, etc. Rheology as per user specs.
DDAC 75· A CATIONIC
SURFACTANT and QUATERNARY SOFTENING AGENT : Introducing for the 1st
time in India. The ready availability of this internation acknowledged
and extensively used specialty softening agent and quat DDAC in 76%
