Inspection
Inspection on Your Ores before Loading:
By 1- Customer himself
Or 2- TTW for the customer
Or 3- Any International Company or Organization for inspection. We recommended test and inspection your material by an impartial third party for example SGS Group or Egyptian Mineral Resources Authority-Central Laboratories Sector (The Official & Authorized laboratories in Egypt).
Samples:
We recommend that you order samples prior to placing your first order.
Samples are provided by us free, courier charges to your account.
If you do not have a courier account, payment can be made by T/T or by Western Union.
Kindly, Filll online Request for Sample form.
“TradeWay (TW) Company” supplies many kinds of ores from our self-owned mines & quarries such as (not limited to) silica quartz, silica sand, feldspar and talc with extensive experience in same field.
Although industrial minerals are prevalent in nearly all aspects of our lives in every country in the world, very little is normally known about the important roles they play to keep our society running. They are nearly invisible components within products from the simplest table plate to the most complicated medication
Average person uses approximately 40,000 pounds of industrial minerals each year. From the food and beverages we consume to the energy that powers our lives
Continued exploration ensures that these essential raw materials remain a uniform and sustainable resource for our customers.
Manufactures of most industries; glass, ceramics, silicate industry, crystal, Artificial marble, paint, coating, casting, optical lenses, metal alloys, electrical components, abrasives, Oil, well drilling industry, water treatment plants, pebbles, sculpture, chemical are invited to deal with us.
A mineral is a naturally occurring, inorganic solid with a defined chemical composition and a crystalline structure. A rock is an aggregate of one or more minerals. Commercially valuable minerals and rocks are referred to as industrial minerals.
The industries in which they are used include paint, electronics, metal casting & foundry, paper, plastics, glass, ceramics, detergents, drugs & cosmetics, construction materials to mention just a few. They are also employed as processing aids, and are increasingly important in environmental engineering.
They are sands or gravel whose colors or shapes are appreciated for their decorative properties. They include pink, green and black gravel and sands, their colors varying depending on the region and on the specific rock deposit.
Gravel and sands have natural properties. They are:
permeable, allowing water to flow through,
- as resistant as traditional aggregates,
- durable and easy to maintain,
- Stable and rot-proof.
They can be used for:
driveways,
- gardens, to limit the spread of plants,
- manufacturing decorative concretes,
- sand trays, due to their rounder grains, avoiding the risk of cuts.
The amount of aggregate you require is governed by the area you wish to cover and to what depth. Un-compacted TTW aggregates weigh 1.4 tons per cubic meter. Therefore if you wish to apply them at a 50mm depth one tons will cover 14 square meters. 50mm is the normal depth for a driveway. For pedestrian pathways 25mm is normally sufficient in which case 1 tons will be sufficient to cover approximately 28 square meters.
First of all it is important that your new aggregates are not wasted by laying them on an unsuitable surface. Loose chippings must be laid on a firm surface and if necessary separated from underlying soil. This was traditionally achieved by the use of plastic sheeting.
Terrazzo is a composite material poured in place or precast, which is used for floor and all treatments. It consists of marble, quartz, granite, glass or other suitable chips, sprinkled or un sprinkled, and poured with a binder that is cementations, chemical or a combination of both. Terrazzo is cured, ground and polished to a smooth surface or otherwise finished to produce a uniformly textured surface.
Aggregates passes through different phases of the manufacturing process, from sources of supply and extraction to crushing, grinding and screening.
The term “engineered stone” is just a technical term that describes the combination of crushed natural stone and a resin binder. The binder holds the stone aggregate together. Through this combination the stone has been "engineered" to enhance it's properties, and form it into a product more workable and usable.
Engineered stone countertops are made in relatively thin slabs. The marriage between stone and resin is completed under intense heat and pressure. Pigments are added during the process to give the product its color. The resulting slab is then polished to a high gloss or honed to a more matte finish.
If this all sounds too technical, think of it as crushed stone that’s combined with a ‘glue’ and baked in a pan. That may be an oversimplification but it may help in understanding the basic concepts of what it is and how it’s made.
The key take-away from this bit-o-science is that the end result is a non-porous material, a very nice attribute for a countertop surface.
Another thing to keep in mind is that some manufacturers, particularly those that make quartz countertops, advertise their products as "natural quartz". And natural quartz it is - but it's not purely a slab of quartz that's been quarried and cut to size. Quartz is the key ingredient (usually about 93%), but the product you're getting is still the combination of quartz and other materials.
Our group TTW is very pleasure to supply stone aggregate - gravel whose colors or shapes are appreciated for their decorative properties. They include pink and green gravel and sands, their colors varying depending on the region and on the specific rock deposit.
