Cradle-to-Cradle, across the full material story.

econiclay is built around circularity: material health, product recyclability, clean air and climate protection, water and soil protection, and social responsibility.

1

Material Health

Made from natural, non-toxic materials like soil, stone waste, and non-metallic tailings, treated to ensure the final product is free from harmful ingredients and emissions.

2

Product Recyclability

Designed for circularity, econiclay products are easily recycled without releasing harmful substances while extending product life and reducing resource use.

3

Clean Air & Climate

The plant is powered by self-generated green energy, operates at low temperatures, and releases no harmful emissions. As an inorganic material, it emits zero VOCs.

4

Water & Soil

The manufacturing process conserves water through steam-to-water condensation, resulting in zero wastewater and a non-vitrified material that breaks down without harming soil.

5

Social Responsibility

Low-temperature production minimizes waste, noise, and pollution, while Class A fire rating enhances community safety and supports broader social equity.

Core Technology — econiclay

A New World of Applications

An all-new foundational material developed from concept to reality. Built from inorganic solid waste, activated at low temperatures, and engineered for boundless application.

Raw materials collected and processed into micro powder

Step 01 — Collection

Raw materials collected, sorted, and crushed into microscopic powder

Inorganic solid waste — including soil, stone-processing residue, and non-metallic tailings — is gathered from industrial streams. The material is sorted by composition and reduced to a fine, microscopic powder, maximizing reactive surface area and diverting waste from landfill.

Low-temperature activation with surfactants

Step 02 — Activation

Modified at low temperatures using proprietary surfactants

The micro-powder is activated at low temperature using PHOMI's proprietary surfactants, eliminating high-energy sintering. The result is an active inorganic powder, encapsulated with active ingredients in a multilayered net structure — similar in geometry to a golf ball.

econiclay mixed with polymers for diverse applications

Step 03 — Application

Mixed with different polymers, derived into a family of eco-materials

Blending econiclay with selected polymers produces a portfolio of eco-materials, each tuned for a specific application. The result is the perfect eco-friendly alternative to plastics — superior flexibility, reduced thermoplasticity, Class A fire resistance, and full Cradle-to-Cradle life-cycle sustainability.
