We are a direct supplier of high-grade soapstone and talc products, exporting from our own mines in Pakistan to industries across the UK. With a vertically integrated operation—from mining and beneficiation to logistics and quality assurance—we offer custom-processed soapstone suitable for industrial applications including plastics, paints, paper, rubber, PVC, cosmetics, and pharmaceuticals.
Soapstone, also known as steatite, is a naturally occurring metamorphic rock primarily composed of talc. The deposits we mine in Pakistan belong to the Hindu Kush geological belt, recognized globally for its high talc content and low levels of contamination. After extraction, our soapstone undergoes beneficiation and micronization processes to match the requirements of UK-based industries.
Our supply chain is tailored for bulk export to UK manufacturers, ensuring compliance with UK REACH regulations and European chemical safety standards. Our in-house testing facilities conduct mineralogical analysis to control brightness, particle size, and chemical composition.
Talc is used as a functional filler in thermoplastics like PP, LDPE, and HDPE. Its platy structure improves dimensional stability, stiffness, and heat resistance, while also aiding in extrusion processes. Research shows that soapstone reduces shrinkage and enhances surface finish in molded parts.
Our fine talc improves rheological properties, enhances suspension stability, and contributes to film smoothness in decorative and industrial paints. It also provides excellent corrosion resistance in primers and industrial-grade coatings.
Soapstone acts as a reinforcing filler, improving mechanical strength and elongation resistance. In PVC applications, it enhances flame resistance and thermal conductivity, and contributes to better electrical insulation properties.
We provide hydrophobic talc grades that enhance paper smoothness, brightness, and printability. It also acts as a pitch and resin control agent in paper recycling processes.
Our pharmaceutical-grade talc is certified asbestos-free and conforms to USP, BP, and EP specifications. It is used in dermatological powders, baby talc, and tablet coating processes. Each batch undergoes microbiological testing and elemental analysis to ensure safety and compliance.
Our quality control system integrates ISO 9001:2015-certified processes and third-party testing labs to validate mineral purity, whiteness, and safety levels. Each grade is categorized based on intended use—industrial, cosmetic, or pharmaceutical. We ensure every export to the UK is accompanied by:
Certificate of Analysis (COA)
Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS)
Customs Documentation for REACH Compliance
This high-grade material is applicable across:
Chemical-resistant laboratory countertops
Architectural and masonry components
Refractory linings and insulation
Foundry molds and sculptures
Electrical insulation and switchboard panels
With over a decade of experience supplying high-performance talc to global clients, we provide:
Mine-to-mill traceability
Consistent mineralogy
Custom particle sizes (ranging from 300 mesh to 5 microns)
Flexible packaging options (jumbo bags, paper sacks)
Support for UK ports and distribution networks
We do not just deliver raw materials—we deliver industrial performance.

Yes, we offer estimates for all potential projects. Contact us to schedule a consultation.
Our typical minimum order quantity for UK clients is 1 container load (approx. 25 MT). However, we can accommodate trial shipments or smaller loads for product evaluation or R&D purposes.
Yes. We provide a comprehensive technical data sheet (TDS) along with third-party lab test reports (covering chemical composition, brightness, mesh analysis, and moisture content) before dispatching the shipment.
We maintain consistency through controlled mining zones, standardized processing lines, and batch-specific QA testing. Each lot is analyzed for key physical and chemical parameters to ensure that repeat orders match your original specifications.
