Why Togo needs filter aid

Togo is a regional logistics hub with West Africa's deepest port at Lomé, serving landlocked Sahel countries.

Bleaching earth is consumed in every batch of refined edible oil, at roughly 0.5–2% of oil weight, so refineries order it on a fixed schedule.

Edible oil milling & refining in Togo

Togo crushes and refines oilseeds for its domestic market. Refineries need activated bleaching clay and filter aid on a predictable schedule; mills need conveyors and bearings; packers need barrels and PET preforms.

In Togo, oilseed crushing mills and solvent extraction plants buy filter aid from us mainly for edible oil refineries (palm, soybean, sunflower, rapeseed, rice bran) and mineral and lubricant oil re-refining.

Who buys filter aid: Oilseed crushing mills · Solvent extraction plants · Edible oil refineries · Oil packers

Oil, gas & petrochemicals in Togo

Oil and gas operations in Togo run on pressure-rated pipe, valves, flanges and gaskets that must be traceable to a mill certificate. Shutdown and turnaround work creates sudden demand for large mixed lists — exactly the orders we consolidate into one shipment.

In Togo, upstream oil & gas and refineries buy filter aid from us mainly for biodiesel and wax and paraffin purification.

Who buys filter aid: Upstream oil & gas · Refineries · Petrochemical plants · Fuel depots
