Manufactured under verified ISO & SGS protocols in Dongying, Shandong, China. Each formulation is calibrated for extreme moisture retention, low dust displacement, and accelerated natural aggregation.
Les Cayes (Sud Department, Haiti) presents specific environmental dynamics: elevated marine relative humidity (often exceeding 80%), high daytime temperatures, and sensitive domestic water infrastructures. Brumel’s modified cassava starch pellets solve traditional clumping failures in tropical coastal zones.
Standard bentonite clay and cheap wood litters draw ambient moisture from the humid ocean air of Les Cayes, leading to tray sludge before contact with feline urine. Our cassava litter features an advanced starch-retrogradation process that repels atmospheric moisture, activating maximum capillary absorption exclusively when liquid is directly applied.
80%+ RH TestedWith residential density increasing across the southern corridor of Haiti, indoor odor control is essential. Feline uric acid volatile molecules are trapped inside the tight polymer lattice of our cassava granules, locking microbial decomposition at the root rather than attempting to mask smells with overwhelming artificial synthetic perfumes.
Natural Microbial BlockDisposal in Caribbean coastal municipalities requires responsible waste stewardship. Brumel cassava granules are 100% natural, dispersing safely within wastewater conduits when discarded in small volume, or breaking down in garden compost without introducing sodium bentonite clays that clog local pipes and drainage channels.
Zero Pipe EncrustationHistorically reliant on coarse sand, construction aggregates, or low-cost imported clay, pet owners and veterinary stockists in Les Cayes and Port-au-Prince are pivoting rapidly toward plant-based litters. The drivers are economic efficiency and respiratory health: silica dust from unrefined bentonite presents documented chronic lung irritation for both cats and human handlers within enclosed tropical housing.
Simultaneously, cassava (manioc) holds profound cultural and agricultural recognition across the Caribbean basin. Retail consumers immediately comprehend the organic safety and non-toxic attributes of a plant-derived formulation. Importers sourcing from Brumel benefit from this consumer alignment, delivering high-margin private label brands that stand out against legacy commodity brands.

Operating from Dongying, Shandong, China, our specialized production facility combines rigorous industrial agricultural processing with export-grade packaging integrity. We support distributors, supermarket chains, and e-commerce entrepreneurs entering the Caribbean pet care market.
Our 7,500 square meter industrial park undergoes rigorous third-party inspection covering raw material purity, processing equipment, dust extraction, and packaging hygiene.
We break down supply chain barriers by offering private label packaging starting from just 400 retail bags, enabling test runs and seasonal brand launches without heavy capital lockup.
Every single production batch undergoes standardized testing for absorption speed, clumping density, trackability, and residual dust before export container loading.
From unflavored natural starch granules to delicate green tea, peach, lavender, or customized botanical deodorants, we formulate according to local market preferences.
Comprehensive answers regarding container logistics, transshipment routes, humidity preservation, and custom packaging configuration.
Full Container Load (FCL) shipments depart Qingdao port directly to Caribbean transshipment hubs like Kingston (Jamaica) or Caucedo (Dominican Republic) before final maritime discharge at Port-au-Prince or Miragoâne/Les Cayes feeder docks. We provide certified ocean bills of lading, phytosanitary certificates, and commercial packing manifests.
We deploy high-micron hermetic composite polybags with vacuum sealing options, heavy corrugated outer master cartons, and container desiccant poles to eliminate condensation ('container rain') during the equatorial sea voyage.
Our standard production allows trial runs from 400 custom-printed bags (e.g., 6L or 2.5kg format). We provide complete dieline templates and internal packaging design assistance to prepare your brand for retail shelves.
Yes. We ship comprehensive testing kits containing pure cassava granules, corn-cassava blends, and custom scent varieties via international air express directly to your office in Les Cayes for clump and dust analysis.
Cassava granules form denser, harder surface clumps with a smaller footprint than tofu cylinder strips. For markets exposed to higher temperature swings, cassava offers superior mechanical stability and zero souring risk under prolonged storage.
We regularly conduct trade via FOB Qingdao, CIF Port-au-Prince, or CFR terms using secured telegraphic transfer (T/T) or documentary Letters of Credit (L/C) verified through premier international commercial banks.
