INNOVATION IS THE LIFEBLOOD OF OUR COMPANY.
MTI applies our technological and scientific expertise to make products and processes more effective, efficient, and sustainable.
ADVANCED SCIENCE FOR POWERFUL SOLUTIONS.
For over 30 years, MTI's industry leadership and growth have been driven by state-of-the-art advances in chemistry, manufacturing, and our four core technologies: crystal engineering, functional additives, engineered blends, and particle surface modifications.
From fluid management technologies for critical environmental projects to product formulations for home and industrial applications, our solutions are continually improved by our mine-to-market experience, global R&D facilities, and close work with our customers to meet their evolving needs.
Proven Expertise From Mineral to Market.
Our customers rely on our innovation and expertise in four core technologies:
Functional Additives
Using unique minerals and additives to deliver product functionality. They support ad/absorption and odor elimination and are primarily used in products for pet care, edible oil purification, renewable fuels, personal care, fabric care, animal health, and agriculture.
Crystal Engineering
A proprietary process to synthesize crystal type, size, and morphology to achieve specific functionalities. It supports lightweighting, strengthening, CO2 sequestration, and calcium fortification and is primarily used for paper and packaging, sealants and adhesives, food and pharmaceuticals, and construction products.
Engineered Blends
The development of tailored blends of specific minerals and additives to enhance customer processes and product performance. They support energy savings, recyclability, and productivity improvement and are primarily used in foundry and refractory applications.
Particle Surface Modification
The modification of the outer layer of our minerals through chemistry. It supports rheology modification and water and fluid filtration and is primarily used in products for water and remediation, drilling products, building materials, and environmental lining systems.
SUSTAINABILITY IS OUR WAY OF LIFE.
From the beginning, sustainability has been at the forefront of our company culture, new product pipeline priorities, and long-term strategy for growth.
We focus on finding new and better ways to minimize our environmental impact, meet our increasingly ambitious emission and waste reduction targets, and help our customers meet their sustainability goals.
We’ll continue to invest in embedding sustainability throughout our operations, supported by the commitment and engagement of our people around the world.
