The products of the Eramet group

Key metal for steelmaking and alloys

Eramet is the world’s leading producer of high-grade manganese, a metal essential for steel production. Manganese improves the strength, durability, and mechanical properties of steel, which is used in infrastructure, transportation, and numerous industrial applications.

Strategic for the industry and electric mobility

Nickel is an essential component of stainless steel and high-performance alloys. It also plays an increasing role in the production of batteries for electric vehicles, contributing to the improvement of their energy density and range.

From minerals to multiple uses

Through its activities in mineral sands, Eramet primarily produces minerals such as ilmenite, zircon, and rutile. These products are used in many industrial sectors: pigments for paints, ceramics, foundries, refractories, and even chemical applications.

At the heart of the energy transition

Lithium is a strategic metal for the development of rechargeable batteries, used in electric vehicles and energy storage systems. It is an essential pillar of the energy transition and decarbonization.

In Argentina, Eramet operates a lithium carbonate plant, relying on a direct extraction process with very high efficiency.
