Our chemical grade coarse salt is beneficiated through the chlor alkali process to manufacture a variety of chemical products, while the fine and coarse salt ranges find use in a host of domestic and industrial applications. Iodised table salt adds flavour to food, acts as a preservative, and plays a critical role in helping to curb the prevalence of preventable birth defects.

Soda ash, which reduces the boiling point of silica, is a major component in glass manufacturing and has extensive application across a wide range of industries including detergents, paper, chemical and metal beneficiation (particularly chrome and vanadium). Dense and light soda ash is produced at Sua Pan in northern Botswana where it is transported by road and rail to various countries in Southern Africa.

Our Kulu Agsup and Kulu Agrit C products are used as a source of calcium in animal feed and poultry grit to promote healthy animal growth.

The production process begins with the quarrying of the raw limestone, which is then taken through two stages of crushing, scrubbing and washing reducing the limestone to granules. The operation is an efficient, technically advanced producer of our beneficiated range of carbonates (known as Kulubrite) for use in the manufacture of paper, paint, plastics, ceramics and chemicals

Magnetite is supplied to the coal industry as a heavy separation medium (for coal washing).
