DE Price Increase Announcement for 2026

For immediate release: November 17, 2025

Dicalite Management Group, LLC (“Dicalite”) has announced a price increase across its line of diatomaceous earth and cellulose products shipping from Burney, CA and Basalt, NV. These facilities continue to experience extremely strong demand and Dicalite has been reinvesting in both operations to increase efficiency and overall capacity. The effective date for the new pricing is for all shipments beginning January 1, 2026.

Dicalite’s Burney, CA operation is in the final phase of a multi-year capital project to increase drying capacity, which will allow for additional plant throughput in early 2026. Dicalite has also completed several other key initiatives throughout the year, with the Basalt, NV facility expanding mining activity and upgrading operational systems in the plant. The additional mining efforts will create access to higher quality ore bodies, improving our quality in critical market applications.

Dicalite is committed to providing our customers with the highest quality products and superior customer service.
