Business Summary
Oil-Dri Corporation of America is a leader in developing, manufacturing and marketing sorbent products and related services for the consumer, fluids purification, agricultural, and industrial and automotive markets. The Company's products are principally produced from clay minerals and, to a lesser extent, other sorbent materials. The Company's sorbent technologies include absorbent and adsorbent products. Absorbents, like sponges, draw liquids up into their many pores. Adsorbent products attract liquids, impurities, metals and surfactants to themselves and form low level chemical bonds. The Company's adsorbents are used for cleanup and filtration mediums.
