Cat Global is the cat litter manufacturing brand under the PY-PET supply group (Puyuan · Dalian Pet Products Co., Ltd.), serving distributors, pet-store chains and private-label importers in 80+ countries. Our 2026 product line covers three proven substrates — tofu, bentonite and cassava cat litter — produced on 12 dedicated lines inside an 18,000 m² factory in Dalian, China. This guide explains how each substrate performs, who buys it, and how to structure a wholesale order that protects your landed cost and your brand.

Why Wholesale Buyers Choose Cat Global as Their Cat Litter Manufacturer

---

Choosing a cat litter manufacturer is not the same as choosing a trading company. Every shipment you re-sell carries your brand’s name, so the factory behind it must be auditable, scalable and consistent. Cat Global operates on the manufacturing footprint of PY-PET, an in-house facility that has produced pet litter continuously since [YYYY] (20+ years of dedicated production experience). Three structural advantages define the brand for B2B partners:

• One legal entity, one factory floor. Cat Global is a brand label of Puyuan (Dalian) Pet Products Co., Ltd. — not a reseller. The same line that packs your order also packs orders for our four sister brands (PY-PET, Emily Pet, Love Sand, Pet-Horizon), giving you volume leverage you cannot get from a single-SKU trading house.
• Multi-substrate coverage. One supplier for tofu, bentonite and cassava cat litter. Consolidating procurement around one vendor cuts documentation work by roughly 60 % and frees your QA team to focus on spec compliance, not supplier onboarding.
• Documentation built for B2B customs. Every shipment ships with SGS, ISO 9001, BSCI, Sedex and MSDS paperwork — the five documents most EU, US, Japanese and Australian buyers request at customs clearance or in retail-buyer audits.

Three Substrates, One Container Programme

Most distributors start with a single substrate and expand after the first container. Cat Global is designed for that path: each of the three cat litter substrates ships in the same 1 × 20GP container format (referred to internally as “1 小柜 20”), so your logistics team uses one booking template regardless of which SKU is on the water.

Tofu Cat Litter — The Plant-Based Retailer’s First Choice

Tofu cat litter is the fastest-growing substrate in the plant-based segment, and Cat Global’s formulation has been refined over more than fifteen production cycles. The pellet is built from ≥95 % natural soybean residue, pressed into a cylindrical 2 mm granule that:

• Forms rock-hard clumps in approximately five seconds on contact with urine, so scooping stays clean.
• Is 100 % biodegradable and flushable in small quantities (per local wastewater rules), appealing to urban millennial and Gen-Z cat owners.
• Carries only a light natural soybean scent — a by-product of the raw material, not an added fragrance — making it the default pick for sensitive, kitten and senior cats.
• Generates near-zero dust, which matters for households with asthma sufferers and for retailers whose return-rate on dusty litter is the single biggest complaint category.

Cat Global ships tofu cat litter in four aroma profiles — Original, Green Tea, Lavender and Charcoal. The activated-carbon Charcoal variant is the strongest seller in humid Southeast Asian markets; the Green Tea profile performs best in Japanese and Korean private-label programmes. We do not offer corn (玉米) or unscented variants; the four profiles above have been validated against repeat-purchase data across our distributor network.

Bentonite Cat Litter — The Heavy-Duty Clumper for Value Retail

Bentonite cat litter remains the volume backbone of the global category, and for good reason: nothing else clumps as fast, locks ammonia as completely, or ships as cheaply per kilogram. Cat Global’s bentonite line uses ≥95 % Wyoming-grade sodium bentonite, precision-sifted through a 200-mesh sieve to keep the dust fraction below 0.1 % per scoop:

• 5-second rock-hard clumps with ≤5 % breakage at scoop — the spec your QA team will measure first.
• 72-hour odour control and a 30-day ammonia lock benchmarked against leading US retail brands.
• 1.6 to 2.5 mm paw-friendly granule, sized for cats from 8 weeks old upward.
• ≥350 % water absorption capacity, validated by in-house QC and re-tested by SGS on every production batch.

The line is fully compliant with EU REACH and US FDA requirements for pet-care contact materials, so distributors importing into the European Union, the United Kingdom, the United States, Canada, Australia and Japan can clear customs without re-testing. Note: bentonite cat litter does not swell in pipes or in the litter box — it clumps via moisture-activated adhesion. Our documentation deliberately avoids any swelling-related language so your buyers do not see conflicting claims across vendors.

 

Cassava Cat Litter — The Flushable Plant Pellet for Eco-Market Importers

Cassava cat litter is the newest of the three substrates in the Cat Global range, and the one most often ordered by importers serving eco-positioned, flushable, low-tracking retail programmes in Western Europe, North America and Oceania. The pellet is built from cassava (tapioca) starch with no grain fillers:

• Biodegrades in soil in 4–6 weeks under normal compost conditions — a verifiable claim your sustainability buyers can defend.
• Flushable in small quantities per local wastewater regulations; ships with an insert that explains the safe-disposal rules in English, Spanish, German and Japanese.
• Light and low-tracking, which is the single biggest driver of repeat purchase in multi-cat households.
• Gentle on paws, suitable for kittens, declawed cats and senior cats with tender foot pads.

Distributors who currently re-sell a plant-based “eco” litter under their own brand often switch their next SKU launch to cassava because the raw-material story is simpler than tofu (no soy allergen concern) and the flushability story is stronger than pine.

Wholesale & Distributor Programmes for Cat Global Cat Litter

Every Cat Global order is structured to give a B2B buyer a predictable landed cost. The standard programme is:

• Sample (free, per inquiry): 1 kg complimentary pack, shipped with your first conversation so you can validate clumping, dust and aroma before placing a production order.
• Trial order minimum: 2 tonnes, independent of the bulk MOQ. The trial lets your QA team run a full panel (dust, clump strength, absorption, fragrance stability) on a real production batch rather than a marketing sample.
• Bulk MOQ (per substrate, per 1 × 20GP container): tofu 18 MT; bentonite 26 MT; cassava on application. Cassava, pine wood, paper and wood-shaving SKUs follow the same “1 小柜 20” container standard — one booking template for the whole range.
• Lead time: delivery within 20 days from deposit, with FOB Dalian as the default Incoterm and CIF/CFR/DDP available on request.
• Monthly capacity: 6,000 tonnes / month across the PY-PET factory floor (150,000 tonnes / year), so a single distributor commitment does not crowd out another’s launch window.
• Certifications shipped with every order: SGS · ISO 9001 · BSCI (amfori) · Sedex · MSDS. CE documentation and EU REACH statements are bundled where requested.
• Private label & OEM: free design support on retail bag artwork (MOQ-based), logo printing, multi-language back-panel text, and UPC/EAN barcode generation. Cat Global can also ship under your own brand without any PY-PET or Cat Global co-branding.

Logistics, Incoterms & Container Planning

For most first-time B2B buyers the shipping terms are the single biggest variable in the landed-cost equation. Cat Global structures every order around a 1 × 20GP container reference so the freight calculator on your side uses one template regardless of substrate:

• FOB Dalian is the default Incoterm 2020 term and the starting point for distributors who already own a freight forwarder.
• CIF and CFR are quoted on request for buyers in Southeast Asia, the Middle East and South America where Cat Global maintains rolling relationships with NVOCC partners.
• DDP is available for North-American and EU buyers who prefer a single all-in landed-cost quote including duty and last-mile delivery to the warehouse.
• Payment terms default to 30 % T/T deposit with the balance against a copy of the B/L; for repeat buyers we extend 30/70 and LC at sight terms after the second container.
• Documentation set shipped with every container: commercial invoice, packing list, certificate of origin (Form E or Form F where applicable), SGS inspection report, MSDS, plant phytosanitary declaration and a per-lot QC sheet.

A 1 × 20GP container loaded with our tofu cat litter runs 18 metric tonnes net weight; a 1 × 20GP loaded with bentonite cat litter runs 26 metric tonnes — the difference comes from the higher bulk density of sodium bentonite versus pressed soybean-residue pellets. The cassava substrate follows the same container footprint and is quoted per enquiry based on the aroma and packaging mix you select. This consistency is the operational backbone our distributors rely on when they negotiate shelf-space commitments with pet-store chains.

Market Fit — Which Substrate Wins in Which Region

The four export regions Cat Global concentrates in — Southeast Asia, South America, North America and the Middle East — each have a clear substrate preference pattern that informs your buying mix:

• Southeast Asia (Thailand, Vietnam, Indonesia, Philippines, Malaysia): tofu dominates, with Charcoal and Green Tea profiles outselling Original 2:1. Bentonite remains the entry-level value SKU.
• South America (Brazil, Chile, Argentina, Colombia): bentonite is the volume substrate; tofu is the fastest-growing premium SKU, especially in urban Brazilian and Chilean pet-store chains.
• North America (US, Canada, Mexico): private-label bentonite is the bread-and-butter SKU; cassava is the fastest-growing eco-segment pick; tofu leads in the natural-channel retailer.
• Middle East (UAE, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Qatar): bentonite with activated-carbon additives for high-temperature ammonia control is the volume leader, with tofu as a fast-growing second SKU in premium grocery.

Quality Control — How Every Cat Global Batch Is Validated

B2B buyers do not get a brand promise; they get a spec sheet. Cat Global’s QC workflow runs in three layers:

1. In-line QC at the press — every production hour pulls pellet samples for size distribution (laser-sorted to the 1.6–2.5 mm band) and moisture (target ≤12 %).
2. Batch QC at packing — every finished lot is tested for dust fraction (200-mesh), clump hardness (5-second test), absorption (≥350 % water uptake for bentonite) and fragrance stability (4-week accelerated-heat panel).
3. SGS third-party verification — randomly selected batches are re-tested by SGS and the report is shared with the buyer before shipment leaves Dalian port.

Frequently Asked Questions — Cat Global Cat Litter Manufacturer

Q1. What is the best cat litter substrate for a wholesale distributor just entering the category?
Start with bentonite — the volume backbone with the highest turnover per square metre of shelf space. Add tofu cat litter as your second SKU to capture the plant-based segment without doubling your supplier list. Cassava is your third SKU once the first two have rotated at least once.

Q2. Is tofu cat litter safe for kittens and multi-cat households?
Yes. Cat Global tofu cat litter is dust-free, flushable, made from ≥95 % natural soybean residue, and carries only a natural soybean scent. It is the standard pick for kittens, senior cats, declawed cats and households with asthma sufferers. No added fragrances or chemical binders are used in the formula.

Q3. What is the MOQ for a private-label cat litter programme?
Trial orders start at 2 tonnes. Bulk private-label orders follow the per-substrate bulk MOQ: tofu 18 MT and bentonite 26 MT per 1 × 20GP container. Free artwork design support is included; lead time is 20 days from deposit.

Q4. How does bentonite cat litter from Cat Global compare to tofu and cassava?
Bentonite gives the fastest, hardest clumps and the lowest per-kilo cost — ideal for value retail. Tofu adds flushability and a plant-based story, with a higher per-kilo price but stronger repeat-purchase rates. Cassava is the eco-positioned, soil-biodegradable SKU, flushable and free of grain allergens — the natural pick for eco-channel retailers.
