The best quality of Baryte is located in Southern parts of India. Baryte is natural mineral form of barium sulphate. It is very preferred due to specific properties such as high specific gravity, very low solubility, being non-toxic and also chemically and physically non-reactive in nature.

The product is available in Lumps and Powder form.

Applications:-

The overwhelming majority of the barite that is mined is used by the petroleum industry as a weighting material in the formulation of drilling mud. Barite increases the hydrostatic pressure of the drilling mud allowing it to compensate for high-pressure zones experienced during drilling. It is also used as a weighing agent additive in paper, cement, rubber and urethane foams, paint and powder coatings for metal protection, insulation and processing improvement.

We can offer all grades of Barite Lumps such as 4, 4.1 and 4.2 SG. We have ability to supply large quantities of barite in bulk as well as containers from India to global destinations.
