Natural Fuller's Earth Exporter from India - Fullers Earth Lumps and Powder Supplier from Rajasthan
Shri Balaji Mines and Minerals is a trusted Fuller’s Earth – also known as Fullers Earth, Fuller Earth and Multani Mitti – exporter from India, supplying high-quality natural fullers earth in lumps and powder form to edible oil refining, cosmetics, cat litter, pesticide, pharmaceutical and other industrial manufacturers across global markets. Our natural Fuller’s Earth is sourced from established deposits in Rajasthan – one of India’s primary fullers earth producing regions – and exported with complete quality documentation to international buyers worldwide.
India is the world’s dominant Fuller’s Earth exporter, accounting for approximately 90% of global fullers earth export shipments. We export Fuller’s Earth on FOB and CIF basis from Mundra port for containerised shipments and Kandla port for bulk vessel shipments, serving buyers in Malaysia, Ghana, Egypt, Sri Lanka, Nepal, Indonesia, UAE and other global markets.
What is Natural Fuller's Earth (Fullers Earth)?
Fuller’s Earth – commercially known as Fullers Earth and traditionally called Multani Mitti in the Indian subcontinent – is a naturally occurring, highly adsorptive clay mineral composed primarily of hydrated aluminium silicates including palygorskite (attapulgite), montmorillonite and associated clay minerals. Its name originates from its historical use by wool textile workers – called “fullers” – who used it to remove oils, dirt and grease from raw wool.
What distinguishes Fuller’s Earth from other industrial clay minerals is its exceptional adsorptive capacity – its natural ability to absorb, adsorb and decolourise oils, fats, pigments, coloured compounds and impurities from liquids and surfaces without chemical modification. This natural adsorptive power, combined with its chemical inertness, fine particle size, high surface area and non-toxic nature, makes Fullers Earth one of the most versatile natural minerals used across edible oil refining, cosmetics, cat litter, pesticide carrier and pharmaceutical applications.
Natural Fuller's Earth vs Acid-Activated Bleaching Earth
Natural Fuller’s Earth (Fullers Earth) is supplied in its naturally adsorptive, unmodified form – without acid treatment. It is a completely different product from acid-activated bleaching earth, which undergoes sulphuric acid activation to significantly enhance its decolorization capacity. Both are available from our portfolio – natural Fuller’s Earth on this page and acid-activated bleaching earth on our dedicated Bleaching Earth page.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is natural Fuller’s Earth?
Natural Fuller’s Earth is a naturally occurring, highly adsorptive clay mineral composed of hydrated aluminium silicates including palygorskite and montmorillonite. It is used in its natural, unmodified form for oil refining, cosmetics, cat litter, pesticide carrier and industrial absorbent applications.
Q: What is the difference between natural Fuller’s Earth and acid-activated bleaching earth?
Natural Fuller’s Earth is used without chemical modification – its natural adsorptive capacity is sufficient for many applications including cosmetics, cat litter, pesticide carriers and mild oil refining. Acid-activated bleaching earth is Fuller’s Earth that has been treated with acid to significantly enhance its decolorization capacity – specifically for edible oil bleaching where high decolorization efficiency is required. We supply both – natural Fuller’s Earth on this page and acid-activated bleaching earth separately.
Q: What is Multani Mitti – is it the same as Fuller’s Earth?
Yes, Multani Mitti is the traditional Indian name for Fuller’s Earth, specifically referring to the cosmetic grade natural clay historically produced in the Multan region (now Pakistan) and Rajasthan. Cosmetic grade Fuller’s Earth / Multani Mitti is widely exported from India to the USA, Canada, Australia and UAE for natural skincare and haircare formulations.
Q: What forms of Fuller’s Earth do you export?
We export natural Fuller’s Earth in lumps form and powder form in 200 mesh and 325 mesh. Custom processing to other particle sizes can be discussed based on order volume.
Q: Which countries import the most Fuller’s Earth from India?
Malaysia is the largest importer of Indian Fuller’s Earth – driven by its palm oil refining industry. Ghana, Egypt, Sri Lanka, Nepal and Indonesia are also significant importers. For cosmetic grade Multani Mitti, the USA, Canada, Australia and UAE are major destinations.
Q: What is the HSN code for Fuller’s Earth export from India?
The HSN code for Fuller’s Earth is 2508 – covering other clays including fuller’s earth, not elsewhere specified or included.
Q: What is the minimum order quantity for Fuller’s Earth export?
Minimum order quantity is one FCL (Full Container Load) for export. Samples of all grades and forms are available before bulk orders.
Q: From which ports do you export Fuller’s Earth?
We export from Mundra port for containerised FCL shipments and Kandla port for bulk vessel shipments. Regular sailings to Southeast Asia, Middle East, Africa and other destinations.
