The production technology of tofu cat litter was introduced to China from Japan in the 1990s. Because the selling price of tofu cat litter was high, China’s economic development level
In the last issue, we mentioned that tofu cat litter has been greatly promoted in China since 2018, and is sought after by the younger generation of cat owners. However, the main material of tofu cat litter is bean dregs, which are the waste residue after extracting soybean protein. There will still be soy protein in it. We know that protein is an organic matter that is prone to mildew due to the influence of temperature and humidity.
Therefore, during the use of tofu cat litter, especially the litter contaminated by cat urine, if it is not cleaned in time, it will quickly become moldy and deteriorate. Even if the cat litter has not been polluted by cat urine, in the rainy season in southern China, the air humidity is high, the tofu cat litter will be damp and moldy, and some tofu cat litter will be infected with insects, and the indoor smell will increase, affecting the younger generation of cat owners.
The pursuit of quality of life the tofu cat litter factory is constantly looking for solutions based on market feedback. With the gradual increase of the tofu cat litter market, the demand for bean dregs increases. The supply of bean dregs exceeds the demand, and the price rises too fast, causing great pressure on tofu cat litter manufacturers, The tofu cat litter factory urgently needs to reduce costs. The tofu cat litter factory tries to mix a certain amount of bentonite ball sand into the tofu cat litter.
The market feedback is very good, because bentonite ball sand is cheap, and bentonite is an inorganic mineral that will not go moldy. It has the function of absorbing mold and toxins, which can not only reduce the product cost, but also solve the problem of mildew and odor in tofu cat litter. In this way, mixed cat litter was innovated as a separate cat litter category.
