Operational Benefits for Ferroalloy & Steel Producers
Our chromite ore isn’t just specification-compliant—it’s engineered for economic and metallurgical efficiency:
- Cost Efficiency: Every 1% increase in Cr₂O₃ content saves approximately $14 per metric ton in ferrochrome production.
- Purity Advantage: Phosphorus below 0.02% prevents steel embrittlement, crucial for aerospace, automotive, and infrastructure steel applications.
- Processing Efficiency: Lumps sized 10–80mm ensure 85% size conformity, reducing pelletizing and energy costs by up to 22%.
Addressing Buyer Pain Points with Precision & Assurance
We understand that sourcing minerals from unfamiliar geographies can raise concerns about quality, traceability, compliance, and post-shipment support. At Shah Mercantile Co., we eliminate those uncertainties through:
1. Transparent Pre-Shipment Validation
Each batch is inspected and analyzed at international third-party labs of your choice, such as SGS or Intertek, ensuring unbiased, verifiable results before shipment leaves port.
2. Logistics & Material Integrity
To preserve grade and prevent cross-contamination:
- We use dedicated, contamination-free trucks for inland transport.
- Magnetic separators are installed pre-loading to remove tramp iron.
- Full cargo weight and moisture are re-verified at port before loading.
3. Compliant Documentation
Each shipment is delivered with a comprehensive documentation pack that meets global compliance standards:
- Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) – SGS certified (can be negotiated)
- REACH Compliance Documentation (EU)
- GB/T 5687-2021 Compliance (China)
- Responsible Minerals Initiative (RMI) Due Diligence Report (can be negotiated)
This ensures smooth customs clearance and traceability at destination ports.
Commercial Terms & Flexibility
We are committed to fostering lasting partnerships through flexibility and professionalism. Our trade terms are tailored to suit your business model:
- Incoterms: FOB Gwadar / CFR Qingdao / CIF Rotterdam (can be negotiated)
- Minimum Order Quantity: 500 MT (can be negotiated for trial orders)
- Insurance Coverage: All-risk marine insurance at 0.45% of invoice value (can be negotiated)
- Certifications: SGS, RMI, or others based on destination and buyer requirement (can be negotiated)
Our export operations are built around consistency, timeline adherence, and responsiveness. Whether you’re a trader, alloy manufacturer, or steel producer, we ensure you receive the quality you specify—delivered with integrity.
