**IMPORTANT DISTRIBUTOR NOTE**
Effective immediately, Oil-Dri Premium and Absorbs it from GA and MS plants will be changing from weight to volume packaging. This will result in new part numbers for the affected products.
WHY THE CHANGE?
Oil-Dri is committed to making our distributors more competitive in todays market.
Our new volume based packaging offers the same amount of product as the competitor’s bag at a LIGHTER WEIGHT. Lighter weight bags allow us to package MORE BAGS per pallet to deliver MORE BAGS per truck and maximize your FREIGHT SAVINGS!
Introducing Oil-Dri’s New Volume Based Bags.
WEIGHT vs VOLUME:
Clay absorbents have traditionally been packaged by weight, most commonly 40 lb. & 50 lb. bags. Now packaged by volume, Oil-Dri can offer the same sized bag as other clay competitors at a lighter weight. Oil-Dri Premium is now packaged in 32 quart abd 40 quart bags. Absorbs-It is now packaged in 28 quart and 35 quart bags.
APPLES to APPLES:
Volume packaging allows for accurate market
comparisons of like products. Oil-Dri bags are now the same size and contain
the same amount of product as our competition. Even at a reduced weight, Oil-Dri Premium is more absorbent
than the leading clay competitor!
BULK DENSITY MATTERS
Given Oil-Dri’s low bulk density, one cubic foot of Oil-Dri absorbent weighs far less than
one cubic foot of the leading competitor’s clay. Oil-Dri quart sized bags offer an equally sized bag as the leading clay competitor... at a lighter weight. Here’s why:
- Type of Minerals: Oil-Dri processes three unique
absorbent minerals from multiple locations across the
country. These minerals naturally have low bulk density
due to high surface area and extensive porosity.
- Moisture Content: Extreme thermal processing
drives 100% moisture from the clay, making it lighter
weight with a low bulk density.
- Porosity: Hundreds of tiny air spaces within each granule
carry no weight and allow for fluid retention within the clay.
