Molochite 50/80s

Valentine Clays Ltd

£113.6

Molochite 50/80’s is a high-performance, medium-coarse grog, produced from calcined China Clay, a refractory white grog known for its exceptional durability and heat resistance. With a well-balanced particle size, it enhances structural strength while preserving a smooth, workable texture, making it an excellent choice for both hand-building and throwing applications. Fine Molochite grades help reduce shrinkage in engobes and improve thermal shock resistance, while coarser grogs are particularly effective in reinforcing clay bodies such as Earthstone, providing greater resilience and stability

Where this comes from

The part other shops don't tell you. Three separate questions, kept separate on purpose, each with its source.

UK company
Registered at Companies House as VALENTINE CLAYS LTD, number 04610423. Checked 2026-08-29.
Means the business is a British legal entity, not a British-sounding name owned elsewhere. It says nothing about where anything is made.
UK operations
Not yet checked.
Means people employed here, or premises they actually work from. We keep this separate from the company badge because a registered office can be an accountant's spare room, and a company can be registered in Britain while everything it does happens somewhere else. Where we have not looked, we say so rather than assuming.
British-owned
No majority shareholding traced outside the UK. Companies House.
Read from the register of people with significant control, following the chain of holding companies. It does not gate anything: a firm can be made here and owned elsewhere, and that is worth telling you rather than hiding.
Where it is made
The maker doesn't say, so neither do we.
This is about the individual product, not the company. A British firm can sell things made abroad, which is normal and not a criticism. We would rather tell you which is which than average them into a score.
