High-purity raw gypsum from Egypt's Eastern Desert. TÜV Austria and EGMIN certified with complete ASTM-method lab documentation.
TÜV Austria Egypt · March 2026 · ASTM C471M / ASTM E726/06 methods
Gypsum is the primary retarding agent in Portland cement production, controlling the setting time of clinker and ensuring workable concrete. High purity is critical — impurities affect cement performance.
Natural gypsum is calcinated and formed into the core of plasterboard panels. A major consumption pathway globally, especially in construction markets in India, Saudi Arabia, and Southeast Asia.
Applied directly to agricultural soils to supply calcium and sulphur, improve soil structure, and reclaim sodic soils. Widely used in India and the GCC for crop yield improvement.
Used in wall plaster, renders, and finishing compounds. Natural gypsum provides the raw input for a range of construction plaster formulations used across the Middle East and Africa.
Used in the production of sulphuric acid, ammonium sulphate fertilisers, and various chemical manufacturing processes that require a reliable source of calcium sulphate dihydrate.
