Zircon (Zirconium Silicate) ZrSiO4 is a naturally occurring mineral which is extracted from alluvial sands and purified by physical and chemical means prior to being processed for ceramic, refractory, and other related applications.
We source our raw materials from specially selected mines around the world to ensure all our raw materials purchased are sustainable, consistent and to a specification.
We process these feedstocks by sieving, calcining, wet/dry milling, classification, and blending.
We offer a range of Foundry Sands for use as mould / core sands, including Chrome Sand, Zircon Sand and Ceramasite.
We also supply Iron Oxide as a mould/core additive to reduce gas porosity defects.
We produce both Chrome Flour and Iron Oxide by milling / grading of feedstocks for use as glass colourants.
We also offer Calcined Bauxite for use in High Friction Surfacing (HFS) to enhance skid resistance of tarmac roads at road junctions.
We offer contract milling, calcining, and blending services to meet our customers own formulation/specifications. Our raw materials, such as Zircon, Zirconia, Alumina, Bauxite, Molochite and other refractory minerals can be processed (sieved / dry or wet milled / micronized / classified) and supplied to customer to their own specifications. Blending and mixing of customer’s own formulations are supplied under strict confidential agreements.
Customised Products and Contract Processing
We source many materials for a wide variety of applications, generally associated with our main supply of Zircon. Our technical expertise and knowledge of Zircon mean we are able to build strong working relationships with our customers to ensure all materials sourced meet their requirements.
