Its Origins

The Velay green clay is different compare to other clays on the market because of its composition. Since the tertiary era, clays’ banks are located at the feet of the Auvergne volcanoes.

Its Compositions

The Velay green clay is a natural mineral, aluminum silicate type with a laminated structure (phyllosilicates). This clay is unique because naturally composed by a natural mix of three different clays with complementary properties and virtues (mainly composed by the illite, the kaolinite and the montmorillonite). The Velay green clay is quartz free.

Universal properties

This natural blend of pure clays has unique properties: a high absorption and adsorption (cationic exchange capacity).

This clayed mineral at 3 layers is non fibrous with a high covering powder.

The humidity rate 4 to 6%- is extremely low, thanks to an innovating drying technique.

The Velay green clay is a certified product:
