Why Nova Ita
Reasons that hold up to technical scrutiny
More than supplying high-performance calcium & magnesium minerals, Nova Ita positions itself as a technical partner to the sectors we serve — bringing engineering, traceability and consistency to every delivery, from the first to the last truck.
Quality with traceability
Quality proven document by document.
Proof
- In-house XRF lab — X-ray fluorescence analysis within our own operation, not outsourced.
- Analysis report per batch — every load leaves with its composition documented (CaO, MgO and others), from the first to the last truck.
- Batch traceability — the customer knows exactly what was received, with history.
Technical capability (an engineering partner)
We deliver a measured result in the customer's process.
Proof
- Specification by process: we fit the product to the application (clarification, refractory, soil correction), not the other way around.
- Our own technical library: engineering articles by sector (steelmaking, sugar & ethanol, agribusiness, industry, wastewater, gases, paving, construction).
- Support that sits with the customer's engineering — a value-in-use approach (refractory consumption, settling, predictable dosing).
Production capacity and supply security
Reserves and logistics that secure supply for high-volume buyers.
Proof
- Mineral reserve estimated at ≈ 250 million tonnes.
- Over 300 years of quarry life — long-term supply assured.
- Multiple delivery formats: bulk, silo, big bag and bags.
- End-to-end control: from the quarry to processing and shipping.
Technology and innovation
A tradition that leads the sector's modernization.
Proof
- Pioneer in introducing AZBE vertical kilns in Paraná, in 1987.
- Process automation and an Industry 4.0 path — calcination control and continuous modernization.
- Instrumented quality control (XRF) integrated into production.
Sustainability, with proof
Sustainability as an operating decision — with the numbers to prove it.
Proof
- 100% renewable biomass calcination — no reliance on fossil fuels.
- ≈ 85,000 tonnes of CO₂ per year avoided versus coke.
- Environmental preservation in the Karst region (about 100,000 trees and 16 ha of protected area).
Tradition and solidity
Decades of permanence, with the energy of a rebuilt company.
Proof
- A family company founded in 1968.
- Rebuilt and modernized from 2014 on — tradition plus current investment.
- More than 50 years in Paraná's lime and limestone sector.
Partnership and service
A technical, close and agile relationship.
Proof
- A proposal and technical datasheet within one business day.
- Specialized technical support by sector.
- Focus on the customer's result (value-in-use), with follow-up.
Integrity and compliance
Growing responsibly is part of who we are.
Proof
- A compliance program with a code of conduct and anti-corruption policy.
- Compliance with the LGPD (Brazilian data-protection law) and an active whistleblower channel.
- Licensed and responsible environmental operation.
