We are sharing the final product specifications for the product we manufacture in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. To produce this, we require manganese tetroxide (Mn₃O₄) as the raw material before the grinding process, as we handle the grinding ourselves. The annual quantity we need is approximately 16,000 tons.
Please use the specifications below to supply us with the raw material:
