Did You Know Most Diatomite Mats Contain Fibers & Chemicals? Here’s the Truth
Diatomite mats are widely marketed as fast-drying and antibacterial, but not all diatomite products are made the same. Many brands cut corners by adding fibers, synthetic binders, and other chemicals, which reduce durability and limit their lifespan.

The Hidden Truth About Ordinary Diatomite Products
Many people assume that all diatomite mats, trays, and holders are the same, but most ordinary diatomite products are not pure diatomite rock. Instead, they are made by mixing diatomite powder with fibers and chemical substances, then air-dried into shape.
🚨 What’s Actually Inside Ordinary Diatomite Mats?
❌ Synthetic fibers – Added to help bind the material together, but they interfere with diatomite’s natural absorption efficiency.
❌ Chemical binders – Used as glue to keep the shape, but make the material less durable and harder to maintain.
❌ Limited maintenance options – Because of these chemical additives, these products cannot be placed in direct sunlight, boiled, or microwaved, as they warp or break apart under heat.
💡 The Result?
✔ A product that loses its absorption power quickly, as synthetic additives reduce the material's moisture-wicking ability.
✔ Deformation over time, making it fragile and unusable within months.
✔ No way to restore—once stained or moldy, it must be thrown away because the structure cannot withstand deep cleaning or heat treatments.
Unlike these lower-quality alternatives, Bulbul’s diatomite products are made with 100% natural minerals, shaped under high pressure, and kiln-baked—offering superior durability and full restorability. 🚀

How to Restore Bulbul’s Diatomite Products
One of the biggest advantages of Bulbul’s diatomite products is that they can be fully restored, unlike cheaper alternatives.
🔹 Clean for a Fresh Look & Peak Performance
✔ For regular maintenance, ensure the product is completed dry using your preferred drying method. 1. Dry under direct sunlight every 1 to 4 weeks or as needed. 2. Use microwave or oven for fast drying. For more detailed instruction, click here
✔ For occasional deep cleansing, boil the diatomite product about 15 - 20 m to remove trapped oil and dirt. Ensure it is fully dry before use
✔ For strong stain or mould which not removed from above step, simply sand the surface lightly to remove stains and refresh its appearance.
🔹 Restore Absorption Performance
✔ If the mat or tray starts to feel less absorbent, simply dry it in the oven or microwave to reset its moisture-wicking properties.
💡 Ordinary diatomite mats can’t handle heat exposure, but Bulbul’s products can be safely refreshed and restored—making them a true long-term investment.
