Calcination powered 100% by biomass

While most of the calcium and magnesium minerals sector still relies on coke and fossil fuels, our kilns run entirely on renewable biomass. The choice is not only environmental: it ensures top-tier industrial performance at a fraction of the carbon emissions.

  • Calcination kilns 100% on renewable biomass
  • A lower carbon footprint with no loss of performance
  • By-product reuse within the process
