How we work

More than a middleman — a supply partner.

01

Customised procurement

Sourced, blended, sized and packed to your plant’s spec — the exact grade, grit and chemistry your process needs, not a catalogue approximation.

02

Financing & terms

Prepayment, inventory and flexible terms that let producers and consumers hold the right stock without tying up working capital.

03

Logistics & freight

Bagged, big-bag or bulk — booked, insured and tracked from load port to your gate, with documentation that clears customs cleanly.

Quality management

Specification, shipment after shipment.

A mineral is only as good as its consistency. Caldera controls grade at source, verifies it before loading, and documents every lot — so what lands at your plant matches what you qualified.

  • Independent pre-shipment inspection on request
  • Consistent chemistry and sizing, shipment to shipment
  • Full provenance — mine to mill to your gate
ISO-aligned QACertificate of analysis per lotOrigin traceabilityREACH & compliance

Documented

Every lot

ships with a certificate of analysis and origin — chemistry, sizing and provenance you can hand straight to QA.
