Overview
At Shah Mercantile Co., we supply cement-grade, natural gypsum mined and processed under strict technical supervision to meet the precise demands of cement manufacturers, wallboard producers, and construction material processors.
Our gypsum is renowned for its high CaSO₄·2H₂O purity, low moisture profile, and performance-optimized whiteness, making it a cost-efficient catalyst for set-time control and strength optimization.
Plant-Level Economic Advantages
Using our high-efficiency gypsum translates directly to measurable savings in your plant operations:
- Lower Bond Work Index – 6.8 kWh/MT
Compared to the industry average of 7.5 kWh/MT, this reduction alone can yield energy savings of up to $11,000/month, depending on throughput. - Reduced Grinding Media Wear – 18% Less Consumption
Our gypsum’s optimized mineral profile reduces mill abrasion, extending liner and media life and cutting maintenance downtime. - Higher Strength Early Setting
Supports more consistent 1-day compressive strength values, streamlining downstream production timelines for cement and board manufacturing.
Contamination Control Measures
We take source purity and contamination control seriously—so your finished product meets internal QA and external regulatory benchmarks.
- Covered Storage from Mine to Dispatch
Prevents moisture reabsorption and microbial growth, with <0.5% moisture retention at the silo stage. - Heavy Metal Screening Every 500MT
Comprehensive testing for arsenic, cadmium, mercury, and chromium—preventing toxic load accumulation in final products. - Minimal Fines Contamination
Refined grinding and sieving reduce residue >45μm, ensuring a clean mix that flows smoothly in pneumatic systems.
Buyer Pain Points We Solve
❱ Inconsistent Setting Time
Our gypsum ensures stable, controlled hydration, minimizing the risk of false or delayed setting, especially in blended cement operations.
❱ High Grinding Energy Costs
With a lower Bond Work Index and less abrasion, we reduce your electricity and grinding media expenses—while protecting downstream process lines.
❱ Moisture & Caking in Storage
We use covered logistics from mining to packaging, maintaining powder dryness and preventing caking or material hardening in transit.
❱ Concerns Around Trading Transparency in Pakistan
We are committed to transforming the sourcing experience from Pakistan—by offering clear documentation, real-time shipment visibility, and buyer-first accountability.
