Gypsum (CaSO4.2H2O) is the basic raw material required to manufacture the

gypsum powder. These are crushed from the mines and then pulverized. Gypsum
powders are calcined in a rotary drum/Horizontal calcinatory system using natural
gas as fuel.

The low pressure burner is sufficient to reach the calcinations temperature. The
process of calcinations is done over a period of about 2 hours, so that molecule of
water is removed to obtain the required properties. After cooling the calcined
powder is passed through 100/150/200 mesh depends on the buyer requirements
and packed in 25 kg airtight woven pp. bag.

Mg Gypsum is produced:-

 100% from natural Gypsum (Pure Gypsum without any chemical

additives).
