Calcium Silicates Products
BPI produces calcium silicate products primarily for metallurgical applications. These products are produced from calcium silicate industrial by-products, manufactured products produced by melting lime with silica, and wollastonite, a naturally occurring calcium silicate. These products are useful for metallurgical slag conditioning applications where quick melting products are required.
