Wolkem's
unique mining, beneficiation, grinding and surface-treatment
processes convert high-quality mined ore into
a variety of mineral products in the form of coated
and uncoated powders and wet-ground slurry. Wolkem's
thirteen beneficiation and grinding plants across
Rajasthan, Himachal, Uttranchal, Andhra Pradesh,
Orissa, Kerela and Tamil Nadu convert the Calcite,
Wollastonite, Talc, Dolomite and Kaolin mined
rocks into specialized grades based on varying
purity, brightness, color, particle sizes, particle
shape and surface-treatments.
The heart of the mineral processing chain is the
sorting and grinding. The sorting activity involves
both manual sorting and/or mechanized sorting,
in fact some of the mechanized sorting equipments
used by Wolkem are unique to the Indian industrial
minerals industry. The manual process of sorting
has evolved 30years ago and now each and every
worker is skilled with this unique process. The
grinding technology used is both indigenous and
imported.
In order to ensure the purity and particle size
of each batch which is dispatched from the plants
meet the specification agreed by the customer,
a stringent process control system is embedded
and a dedicated team is earmarked to ensure the
system is followed and further improved.
In order to find ways to develop better products
and optimize costs thus offer cost effective
fillers and pigments to our customers, Wolkem
tries to upgrade its processing technology fairly
quickly. At Wolkem the process control team keeps
itself abreast by participating in major international
mineral processing and beneficiation seminars
and conferences. Constant research undergoes to
better and automate the manufacturing processes
The R&D centre forms the vital pivotal point
for new innovation in the processing chain
Wolkem's processing operations are ISO 9001:2000
and 14001: 1996 certified |
