Quick answer
Who supplies activated bleaching clay in Venice, Italy?

Why Venice needs activated bleaching clay
Porto Marghera's chemical and refining area, plus tourism. 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.
Italy is Europe's second-largest manufacturer, with strong machinery, automotive, textile, food and olive-oil industries concentrated in the north.
Oil, gas & petrochemicals in Venice
Oil and gas operations in Venice 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 Venice, upstream oil & gas and refineries buy activated bleaching clay from us mainly for edible oil refineries (palm, soybean, sunflower, rapeseed, rice bran) and mineral and lubricant oil re-refining.
