Why Burkina Faso needs activated bleaching clay

Burkina Faso is a landlocked Sahel economy built on gold mining and cotton, supplied through Abidjan, Tema and Lomé.

Bleaching earth is consumed in every batch of refined edible oil, at roughly 0.5–2% of oil weight, so refineries order it on a fixed schedule.

Edible oil milling & refining in Burkina Faso

Cottonseed and shea processors need spare parts, bleaching earth and packaging.

In Burkina Faso, oilseed crushing mills and solvent extraction plants buy activated bleaching clay from us mainly for edible oil refineries (palm, soybean, sunflower, rapeseed, rice bran) and mineral and lubricant oil re-refining.

Who buys activated bleaching clay: Oilseed crushing mills · Solvent extraction plants · Edible oil refineries · Oil packers

Oil and gas operations in Burkina Faso run on pressure-rated pipe, valves, flanges and gaskets that must be traceable to a mill certificate. Shutdown and turnaround work creates sudden demand for large mixed lists — exactly the orders we consolidate into one shipment.

In Burkina Faso, upstream oil & gas and refineries buy activated bleaching clay from us mainly for biodiesel and wax and paraffin purification.
