KFIR ECO
A world leader in transforming quarry waste
into sustainable products
About Us
KFIR ECO began its journey by marketing Alganite (oil shale ash) to customers in Israel and abroad, developing cat litter and absorbent bedding solutions for dairy farms, poultry houses, and the petrochemical industry.
Today, in addition to these products, the company places strong emphasis on innovation, circular economy principles, and the ongoing development of products based on quarry waste that can benefit both nature and the environment in which we live.
KFIR ECO develops and markets a range of innovative solutions based on by-products of the quarrying industry. These serve a wide variety of industries and applications, while supporting the principles of the circular economy and environmental sustainability.
EURO KITTY - Cat Litter
Anyone who has a cat at home knows how important it is to provide high-quality litter for its daily needs. At KFIR ECO, we harnessed the unique properties of oil shale ash as a non-clumping material with high absorbency to develop a unique cat litter.
Our EURO KITTY cat litter has three main advantages:
Odor absorption
Makes it possible to live with a cat at home while still keeping a pleasant smell in the house
Non-clumping litter
This means that no mud is formed as a result of the cat’s waste
High absorption capacity
Allows the litter to maintain its shape and not become watery
DAIRY COMFORT - Absorbent Bedding for Poultry Houses
A mineral bedding material for chicken coops and broiler houses that replaces wood sawdust. It provides a dry, sterile environment with a dramatic reduction in ammonia. Proven in pilot programs, it showed a 15-20% improvement in final weight and a 40-60% reduction in ammonia levels.
Key Benefits:
Less toxic emissions
A 40-60% reduction in ammonia, resulting in fewer respiratory and skin problems
High absorption capacity
Absorbs 3-5 times more moisture than wood sawdust
Healthier for poultry
Helps prevent pododermatitis (inflammation of the foot pads)
Cost-effective
Saves 20-35% in bedding costs
Reliable availability
Stable availability, without dependence on fluctuating wood supply
DAIRY COMFORT - Absorbent Bedding for Dairy Farms
A mineral bedding material for dairy farms that provides a dry, sterile layer for cow resting areas. Its basic pH suppresses pathogenic bacteria, and its high absorbency prevents moisture buildup. Proven in the field to reduce cases of mastitis and improve cow welfare.
Key Benefits:
High absorption capacity
Excellent moisture absorption for a dry resting area over time
Healthier for cows
A 30-40% reduction in cases of mastitis
Cost-effective
An 11-month ROI for a 100-cow dairy farm
Reusable
Can be reused as a mineral-rich fertilizer
Easy maintenance
Low specific gravity, making it easy to maintain and replace
Industrial Absorbent - Absorbent Substrate for Industry
Regulation in the petrochemical industry is very strict and requires companies to dispose of oil and diesel residues using materials that can return to nature without increasing pollution. The unique properties of oil shale ash allow us to provide our customers with a soft absorbent substrate that offers very high absorption and adsorption capacity while helping reduce environmental impact.
Properties of the oil shale ash absorbent substrate as a unique material for absorbing fuels and oils in industry:
High absorption capacity
Non-clumping material
Both high absorbency and environmental protection
One of the most important principles for us at KFIR ECO is protecting the environment.
We think green, talk green, and believe it is possible to have both: a successful product that meets the strictest criteria for absorption and adsorption capacity, especially for liquids such as fuels, oils, and diesel, while also protecting the environment, preserving it as much as possible, and helping prevent pollution.
We invite you to enjoy the unique properties of our absorbent substrate for industry, which offers both high absorption capacity for fuels and oils and protection for the environment.
Pozzolanic Additive for Cement and Concrete - (OSA) ECO ADDITIVE
An advanced substitute for scarce coal ash, based on oil shale ash from Estonia. At an optimal concentration of 10-15%, it improves concrete strength by 8%, reduces CO₂ emissions, and lowers costs. Stable supply of 7 million tons per year.
Key Benefits:
Concrete strength
Up to 8% improvement in compressive strength (28 days)
Lower emissions
A reduction of 0.9 tons of CO₂ for every ton of cement replaced
Cost-effective
25-30% lower cost than high-quality coal ash
Reliable availability
Strategic availability, without dependence on scarce coal ash
Meets standards
Complies with ASTM C618 and EN 450-1 standards
