Speciality glass.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\nGlobal supply chain dynamics<\/h3>\n Due to its critical use in a range of technologies that are globally significant to decarbonisation, establishing robust supply chains for boron advanced materials is imperative.<\/p>\n
However, supply chains are currently vulnerable. Around 85% of boron is sourced from Turkey and a non-core declining asset within the US.<\/p>\n
Moreover, most of the world\u2019s refined boron advanced materials and specialities are imported from China, with 80% of boron carbides also sourced from China.<\/p>\n
This dependence on foreign imports puts various industries in jeopardy from supply chain disruptions, meaning a reliable resource is more urgent than ever, a resource that 5E is uniquely positioned to supply.<\/p>\n
Sustainable boron production for global decarbonisation<\/h3>\n 5E\u2019s local operational strategy emphasises energy efficiency and minimises resource consumption and environmental disturbance in the surrounding area.<\/p>\n
Their integrated, on-site processing model eliminates energy-intensive steps throughout the product value chain, assisting customers in achieving their sustainability objectives with a reduced carbon footprint.<\/p>\n
The company\u2019s in-situ extraction promotes lower greenhouse gas emissions than traditional open-pit and underground mining methods, while the closed-loop processing methods reduce water consumption by capturing, recycling, and recirculating water across multiple process operations.<\/p>\n
Additionally, the processing of boron advanced materials at the company\u2019s production facility is at the same location where upstream extraction will be performed, creating efficient logistics and energy usage.<\/p>\n
The competitive edge of 5E\u2019s superior resource quality, secure domestic supply chain, and advanced downstream processing capacities position the company to become a global leader in boron advanced materials.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
