Eti Maden extracts boron minerals using various mining methods, enriches them through physical processes, and converts them into concentrated boron products. The minerals are refined at Eti Maden’s innovative facilities and transformed into highly efficient and sustainable boron products used in many fields including glass, ceramics, agriculture, detergents, and cleaning products.

Mine of the Future: Boron

Eti Maden is designing the future of boron and has spent the past few years widening its product portfolio. Eti Maden currently has 17 refined boron products in its product portfolio and is producing materials with variety and different spectral values. Primary refined boron products are Etibor 48 (Borax Pentahydrate), Borax Decahydrate, Boric Acid, Etidot 67, Etibor 68 (Anhydrous Borax), Zinc Borate, Boron Oxide, Ground Colemanite, and Ground Ulexite.

Eti Maden aims to widen the usage areas of boron products through R&D work. There are plans for increasing usage of boron products in space and air vehicles, nuclear applications, military vehicles, fuels, communication electronics, polymeric materials, nanotechnologies, automotive and energy sectors, metallurgy, and construction.
