Most sulphur on the market is recovered from oil refining and natural gas processing, where it is removed from fuels to meet clean air rules. It is melted, formed into granules and cooled, giving a dust-free product that is easy to store and handle.
High Purity
Sulphur content of 99.9% typical, with very low ash, moisture and acidity.
Dust-Free Granules
Hard, uniform granules produce far less dust than powder or lump sulphur.
Easy Handling
Free-flowing material suited to bulk vessels, rail wagons, trucks and bags.
Inspected Cargo
Quality and quantity verified by an independent inspector at loading and discharge.
