Concrete & civil engineering

We provide a variety of minerals that are used in this industry, either directly or indirectly. You will find all of our products and customer cases aimed at the concrete and civil engineering industries.

Molybdenum

Alloy steel material Molybdenum

Molybdenum’s ability to withstand extreme temperatures without significant thermal expansion or softening makes it useful in intense heat applications.

GGBS – Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag

Cement material GGBS

Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag (GGBS) offers great durability, reducing the likelihood of concrete thermal cracking, and it improves concrete’s resistance to damage from alkali-silica reaction, sulphates and chlorides.

UltraCarb - Halogen Free Fire Retardant Filler

Flame resistant Ultracarb

UltraCarb products are hydromagnesite – huntite fire retardants, for a wide range of polymers and rubbers.

Gypsol Binder - Anhydrite Floor Screed Supplier for underfloor heating

Floor screed solutions with Gypsol

Gypsol is a general-purpose, free-flowing, self-compacting anhydrite screed binder.

Limestone FIller

Limestone calcium carbonate powder

Used as an anti-stripping additive and mineral filler, our limestone is found in asphalt to improve quality cost-effectively.

MagnaChem - Pure and Natural Fine Magnetite

MagnaChem for water treatment

MagnaChem is a product of very pure and natural fine magnetite used for the water treatment industry

MagnaDense

MagnaDense for engineering materials

MagnaDense is a natural Magnetite used for loose ballast and high density concrete.

Magnetite

Magnetite high density mineral

Magnetite is a very pure and milled material, that can be used in various industries.

MinSand - Spherical Refractory Bead

MinSand as silica sand

MinSand is a perfectly spherical refractory bead produced by fusing and supercooling Bauxite in an electric arc furnace.

Olivine

Olivine

Olivine is a naturally occurring mineral magnesium iron silicate sourced from Norway with a high melting point and density.

tungsten

Tungsten for refractory metals

It has the highest tensile strength and the lowest thermal expansion of all metals.

We offer a wide range of minerals for a variety of concrete engineering applications.

Our products go into a vast range of applications, such as concrete weight coating, counterweights, and sprayable concrete, ensuring the performance and durability of concrete structures.

The products we sell into the concrete and civil engineering sector include Magnetite, GGBS (Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag) and many more.

Concrete weight coating

One area our products go into is concrete weight coating. This is a crucial requirement for underwater pipelines and offshore structures. Our Magnetite is an effective material for this application, providing stability and protection against buoyancy and external impacts. It ensures the integrity of offshore infrastructure and helps maintain underwater pipelines’ safe and efficient operation.

Counterweights

A derivative of Magnetite, our MagnaDense is used as a counterweight for civil engineering applications. MagnaDense is used as a counterweight solution in various projects, including bridge and dam constructions. Its high density enables precise balancing and stability, ensuring the structural integrity of projects with more weight, less volume.

Sprayable concrete

In addition to concrete weight coating and counterweights, our MicaFort is also used in sprayable concrete applications. Sprayable concrete, commonly used in tunnel linings and ground improvements, requires specific properties such as excellent workability, strength, and durability. We supply a range of high-quality minerals, including aggregates, ballast, and sand, that meet these strict requirements. Our products contribute to the production of sprayable concrete with superior performance, ensuring the longevity and effectiveness of sprayed concrete structures.

By utilising our minerals, construction projects can achieve higher efficiencies, reduced environmental impacts, and extended lifecycles. The properties of Magnetite and other minerals we offer provide significant benefits to concrete structures, including improved stability, durability, and strength. Whether for concrete weight coating, counterweights, or sprayable concrete, our minerals play a vital role in ensuring the integrity and long-term performance of various civil engineering projects.
