Which should you choose?
If you want strong clumping and the lowest monthly cost, choose Sanking bentonite. If you want flushable and eco-friendly without the import price, choose Sanking Natura. Generic bentonite saves a little up front but usually clumps worse and dusts more; imported tofu performs well but costs the most.

Frequently asked questions
For value and clumping strength, Sanking's bentonite is hard to beat and costs far less per month than imported clay. For a flushable plant-based option, Sanking Natura competes directly with imported tofu brands at a lower local price, and ships faster because it is distributed within Malaysia.
Bentonite is clumping clay - strong clumping, strong odour control, cheapest per month, but heavy and not flushable. Tofu is plant-based - lighter, flushable in small amounts, biodegradable, but costs more and can soften in high humidity.
A large-format clumping bentonite gives the best value because hard clumping means less waste and bulk sizes lower the cost per litre. Sanking 20L bentonite is a strong value pick.
