Clay Ranges:

Earthen Airdrying Clay

Our airdry earthen clay has been reinforced with nylon fibres to make it strong. It is a similar product to Newclay air drying clay. The nylon reinforcing fibres are an excellent bonding agent which reduces brittleness and means that the airdry need not be fired and can be painted and varnished. So airdrying clay is an ideal modelling medium for both children and adults. It is available in pack sizes from handy 1kg packs of clay for smaller products, to bulk 12.5kg packs at great prices. From Italy, we also have the Giotto well known air dry clays called Das and Plastiroc. This is available in 500g and 1000g blocks in Grey and Terracotta. These are semi artificial sterilised clays.
