Cat Global Tofu Cat Litter — Plant-Based, Flushable, Low-Dust
Arena de tofu para gatos (also called soya cat litter, soybean cat litter, or soysand cat litter) is a plant-based clumping cat litter made from food-grade soybean residue — a by-product of tofu production. The Cat Global brand is manufactured in 1.5mm round-stick pellets, then packed under the Cat Global label for export.
What is tofu cat litter?
Cat Global tofu cat litter is produced at PY-PET’s Aisha-Pet factory in Dalian from food-grade soybean pulp sourced as a by-product of tofu manufacture. The residue is dried, milled, pelletised into uniform round sticks (1.5mm), and packaged under the Cat Global brand.
Unlike mineral clay litters, tofu cat litter is biodegradable, flushable in small clumps with running water, and produces significantly less dust — making it especially suitable for kittens, senior cats, long-haired breeds, and households where respiratory sensitivity is a concern.

Why tofu cat litter is gaining market share
- Plant-based
Made from renewable soybean residue, not mined mineral clay.
- Low dust
Post-extraction dust content ≤ 0.3% (factory-tested).
- Se puede tirar por el inodoro
Small clumps dissolve in running water — no landfill.
- Hard clumps
3-second clumping strength 290–480 g/cm² for easy scooping.
- Odour control
88–92% deodorisation rate — neutralises ammonia.
- Biodegradable92–98% biodegradation (OECD 301B).
- Soy residue base
Upcycled from food-grade soybean residue — fits circular-economy and ESG procurement briefs.
- Multi-scent
Original · Lavender · Green Tea · Peach · Activated Charcoal · Unscented · Corn — supports fragrance-load customisation for OEM programs.
Tofu Cat Litter Technical Specifications
Cat Global tofu cat litter ships in round-stick pellet form (1.5mm diameter) — the same shape buyers commonly search for as tofu pellet cat litter, tofu pellets cat litter, granular tofu cat litter, crushed tofu cat litter, or 2.0mm strip shape tofu cat litter (the OEM-customised 2.0 mm variant). All shapes are produced on the same Aisha-Pet line.
All figures verified by third-party SGS lab testing on every production batch.
Tofu Cat Litter Advantages — Why B2B Buyers Choose This Substrate
Six functional advantages that translate into shelf turnover and lower complaint rates.
Plant-Based & 100% Biodegradable
Made from soybean residue — not mined mineral clay. Breaks down 92–98% in 12 weeks under OECD 301B conditions, supports sustainability claims on packaging, and passes stricter eco-labelling requirements in EU and South American chain-store tenders.
Flushable & Low-Tracking
Small clumps pass with running water in standard residential plumbing. Lightweight round-stick granules stay in the box instead of being carried out on paws — cutting complaints and protecting the “easy clean” story on shelf.
Low Dust & Cat-Safe pH
Dust content under 3.0% post-extraction and a pH of 6.5–7.5 make our tofu cat litter safe for kittens, senior cats, post-surgery cats, and households with respiratory sensitivities. SGS-verified heavy-metal limits protect your brand reputation.
3-Second Clumping & 600% Absorption
Hard, fast-forming clumps lock in moisture and odor on contact. With 290–480 g/cm² clump strength and 600%+ water absorption, daily scooping is faster and the litter box stays drier between full changes.
88–92% Odor Control, 5 Scent Options
Natural deodorization at 88–92% with seven stock scent profiles (Original · Peach · Green Tea · Lavender · Carbon) covers regional preferences from Middle East rose-forward buyers to neutral-preference EU/Australia chains.

The eight questions our export team hears every week from distributors and private-label buyers evaluating a new cat litter manufacturer.
Cat Global Cat Litter FAQ
Answers about manufacturer identity, MOQ, lead time, substrates, OEM packaging, samples and payment terms.
Who actually manufactures Cat Global cat litter?
PY-PET (Puyuan Dalian Pet Products Co., Ltd.) — the same legal entity that owns the Cat Global brand. Production runs at our in-house factory Aisha-Pet in Dalian, China. We are not a trading company and we do not relabel any third-party production. One company, one factory, one quality system.
What is the MOQ for Cat Global tofu cat litter?
Standard MOQ is 1 × 20FT container (≈ 18–22 MT). For first-time buyers and market-entry trials we also offer a 2-ton trial order (mixed-SKU pallet program) so you can validate the product in your market before scaling up to full containers.
What is the lead time from deposit to FOB Dalian?
≤ 20 days after deposit for standard SKUs. Custom OEM/ODM programs typically take 32–40 days total (sample + design + production + QC). Rush orders can be accommodated for an expedite fee — discuss with your account manager.
What is the difference between tofu cat litter and bentonite cat litter?
Tofu cat litter is plant-based (food-grade soybean residue), flushable in small clumps, biodegradable (92–98% per OECD 301B), lightweight (0.45–0.60 kg/L), and produces very low dust. Bentonite cat litter is mineral clay (sodium bentonite), heavier (0.75–0.88 g/ml), forms rock-hard clumps that won’t flush, and is the lowest-cost option for high-urine-volume multi-cat households. Cat Global carries both substrates under one factory roof — read the full substrate comparison →
Can you do OEM / private-label packaging?
Yes. We run OEM/ODM programs daily. Send us your artwork, target SKU, retail pack size, and destination market — our in-house design team handles layout, translation and back-panel compliance (e.g. ANVISA Brazil, GSO Gulf, FDA Philippines). Free design service is included for OEM programs above 1 × 20FT.
What scent options are available for Cat Global tofu cat litter?
Seven stock options: Unscented (zero fragrance), Original, Peach, Green Tea, Lavender, Activated Charcoal, and Corn. Custom fragrance profiles (e.g. baby powder, ocean breeze) are available for OEM programs above 5 MT per SKU. See the scent variants guide →
Is Cat Global tofu cat litter flushable?
Yes — small clumps (scoop-only quantity, not bulk litter) are flushable in standard household toilets with running water. Bulk used litter should be bagged and disposed of as garden compost or household waste. This is a meaningful sustainability advantage over bentonite (which is mineral clay and must be landfilled).
Which documents ship with every order?
Standard document set: COA · MSDS · COO (Certificate of Origin) · Health Certificate · Packing List · Commercial Invoice · SGS test report · Fumigation Certificate. Regional add-ons: ANVISA / MERCOSUR documents for Brazil and South America, GSO / GCC conformity for Gulf, FDA Philippines for the Philippines market. All documents are bilingual EN + destination language where required.
Can I get a free sample before placing a container order?
Yes — 5–10 kg free sample, freight collect. Tell us your target substrate, granule size, scent preference and packaging format. Samples typically ship via DHL within 3 business days. Use the inquiry form above and select “Tofu cat litter — 2-ton trial” or your closest match.
What payment terms do you offer?
T/T 30% deposit + 70% balance against B/L copy is standard. L/C at sight is available for established partners. For repeat orders above 6 containers per year, we offer 20% deposit + 80% against B/L on request. All prices quoted in USD (EUR / GBP / BRL on request).
What is the typical wholesale price per ton for Cat Global tofu cat litter?
Pricing depends on SKU, fragrance, packaging and trade term (FOB / CIF / DDP). As a working benchmark: 1 × 20FT (≈ 18–22 MT) FOB Dalian starts in the low-mid three-digit USD per ton range for standard SKUs and rises with customisation, fragrance loading and OEM packaging. Use the inquiry form for a written quote valid for 14 days. Read the full 2026 pricing guide with worked FOB / CIF / DDP examples →
How long does it take to scale from a 2-ton trial to a full container program?
A typical first-time buyer path: 1-ton trial (week 1–2) → sample validation in your market (week 3–8) → 1 × 20FT pilot container (week 9–12) → multi-container program (month 4 onwards). With a single dedicated account manager coordinating every step, the average buyer reaches a steady 4–8 containers per quarter within their first year.
The B2B Buyer's Guide to Tofu Cat Litter — Process, Pricing & Pitfalls
On this page
1. What is tofu cat litter, really?
Tofu cat litter is a plant-based clumping cat litter manufactured from food-grade soybean residue — the by-product of tofu, soymilk and soy-protein production. The wet residue is dried, milled, blended with natural binders (corn starch, guar gum) and pelletised into uniform round sticks (typically 1.5–3.0 mm diameter, 10–30 mm length). Once dried, the pellets are dust-extracted, fragrance-loaded (optional), and packed. Buyers searching for tofu based cat litter, soysand tofu cat litter, soya cat litter, soybean cat litter, soy based cat litter, soybean fiber cat litter, or food-grade soy pulp cat litter are all describing the same product family.
The end result is a lightweight, low-dust, biodegradable, flushable clumping litter that competes head-to-head with bentonite on clumping strength while winning on sustainability. The trade-off versus bentonite is per-ton price (tofu runs higher) and clumping hardness (bentonite is harder but isn’t flushable). Many retailers now stock both substrates to cover different household preferences.
2. The B2B order process, step by step
RFQ & sample
Send substrate, granule size, scent, fragrance load, pack size and target quantity. We reply with a written quote within 24 hours and ship a 5–10 kg free sample (freight collect) within 3 business days.
Formula lock & packaging design
After your in-house QA validates the sample, we lock the formula in writing. For OEM programs, our design team prepares artwork, back-panel translations and a 3D mock-up of the retail pack.
Deposit & production scheduling
T/T 30% deposit secures your slot on the production calendar. Lead time ≤ 20 days for standard SKUs, 32–40 days for OEM programs. You receive a loading-window forecast on day 1.
Production + in-process QC
Mix → pelletise → dust-extract → fragrance-load → pack. In-process QC at every stage. SGS dust, heavy-metal and biodegradability testing on the finished batch.
Loading & documentation
Container loading photo, container number, full document set (COA, MSDS, COO, SGS report, Commercial Invoice, Packing List) sent on the day of FOB Dalian. CIF / DDP quotes are booked per destination lane.
Balance payment & B/L release
T/T 70% balance against B/L copy. Telex release of the Ocean B/L once payment clears. ETA to destination port provided at booking confirmation.

3. How pricing actually works (FOB vs CIF vs DDP)
The price a B2B buyer pays depends on three variables: the trade term (FOB vs CIF vs DDP), the SKU configuration (substrate, granule size, fragrance load, pack size), and the shipment size (1 × 20FT pilot vs 10 × 40HC annual program).
- FOB Dalian — the factory-gate price. You pay for the goods + our loading onto the vessel. You arrange and pay for ocean freight, insurance and destination charges. Best for buyers with their own freight forwarder.
- CIF destination port — we quote the goods + ocean freight + insurance to your named destination port. You handle destination clearance and last-mile delivery. Best for buyers who want a single all-in price.
- DDP your warehouse — we deliver the goods, cleared and duty-paid, to your warehouse door. Best for buyers in markets where the seller has an established customs broker (we have lanes in BR, MX, CL, US, DE, NL, SA, AE).
👉 See worked FOB / CIF / DDP price examples in the 2026 tofu cat litter pricing guide →
4. How to vet a tofu cat litter supplier
Five things to verify before sending a deposit:
- Factory ownership — request the business license. The supplier name on the invoice must match the factory name (no trading-company intermediaries).
- Production capacity — ask for monthly tonnage and verify with a third-party audit (SGS, Bureau Veritas).
- Active certifications — request scanned copies of ISO 9001, BSCI, Sedex, SGS test reports with expiry dates.
- Reference shipments — ask for a B/L copy from a recent shipment to your destination country. A real supplier has dozens of these.
- Sample quality — order 5–10 kg samples from 2–3 suppliers and run your own QA before committing to a container.

5. 5 common B2B pitfalls — and how to avoid them
- “Too cheap” offers — sub-$X / ton FOB usually means off-spec raw material or a relabelled competitor’s product. Always request a COA and an SGS report.
- Vague lead times — “30–60 days” is not a lead time, it’s an excuse. Demand a written ≤ 20-day commitment with penalty clauses for delays.
- Mixed-substrate bait-and-switch — confirm in writing that your container holds the substrate you ordered. Some factories substitute bentonite for tofu at the loading stage.
- No SGS report — if the supplier can’t produce a recent SGS dust + heavy-metal report, walk away.
- “First-time” deposit demands > 50% — standard is 30% deposit + 70% against B/L. Anything above 50% deposit signals cash-flow stress on the supplier side.
6. Per-ton cost calculator
Quick math for a 1 × 20FT container of Cat Global tofu cat litter (≈ 18–22 MT, standard SKU, Original fragrance, 6 L pack):
- Goods (FOB Dalian): approx USD 700–900 / MT (depends on volume + SKU)
- Ocean freight Dalian → Manzanillo / Santos / Jeddah / Rotterdam: USD 60–120 / MT (varies with lane + bunker)
- Destination charges (THC, doc fee, ISF): USD 400–600 per container
- Duty (varies by HS code + destination): 0–10% CIF for most cat-litter HS codes
For a hands-on calculation, send us your target SKU, destination port and trade term via the inquiry form — we’ll send back a line-item quote within 24 hours.
