Argiletz - Natural clay for health and well-being

Founded in 1953 by Jean Heitz, the French Argiletz brand is a pioneer in the therapeutic and cosmetic use of 100% natural clay. Inspired by his mother, who treated resistance fighters with green clay during the Second World War, Jean Heitz passed on his deep conviction in the benefits of this mineral through products that respect the skin, the body and the environment.

Today, Argiletz remains a family-run business committed to quality, sustainability and naturalness. Argiletz clay is mined, sun-dried and packaged in a variety of forms to meet dermatological, articular, oral and digestive needs.

Pure, active, certified French clay

Argiletz selects clays from French quarries. They are rich in essential minerals: silica, magnesium, calcium, iron, potassium, manganese... Each clay is non-ionized, preservative-free, not tested on animals, and naturally sun-dried to preserve the concentration of its active ingredients.

Mint-flavored, these chewing gums containillite, a remineralizing clay that helps neutralize plaque and freshen breath-ideal if you don't brush.

Green clay for digestion

Used internally (under medical supervision), green clay acts as a natural adsorbent, binding toxins and regulating digestive disorders (heartburn, bloating, reflux). Rich in silicon and iron, it protects mucous membranes and promotes intestinal balance.
