Egypt Bentonite & Derivatives Company.

About us

Egypt Bentonite & Derivatives Company (EBDC) was founded in 1997 as a sister company To Egypt Mining & Drilling Chemicals (EMIDC, 1989) to pioneer the Bentonite industry in the Middle East for the production of sodium activated Bentonite. EBDC was launched to cover the increasing demand of the Bentonite market which exceeded the capacity of the older sister EMIDC. In 1998 AMCOL (Volclay International); the world’s largest Bentonite producer, acquired 25% of the shares of both companies.  Click for details>>
