Overview
Ferromin
Ferromin’s high density aggregates answer the call when a design requires low-volume, high-weight concrete or loose ballast. Our high quality aggregates have been used successfully in Cancer Treatment Buildings, Medical Research Reactors, Nuclear Reactors and Spent Fuel Canister production.
Ferromin’s FerroShield™ and FerroDense™ is produced from a high-quality deposit of a natural iron oxide called magnetite. Having access to reliable supplies of magnetite, ilmenite and hematite allows Ferromin to produce aggregates in a range of densities, while maintaining concrete gradation specifications.
Reliable Supply from In-House Resources
Ferromin acquired the Tomclid Iron mine in Eastern Ontario in 2005. The Tomclid is a high-grade magnetite mine with substantial reserves allowing us to provide reliable, long term supply of consistent quality products. We are able to produce medium-density aggregate with a specific gravity of 3.0 – 4.0 and high-density aggregates from 4.0 – 5.2.

With its outstanding properties and compliance with ASTM and CSA standards FerroShield™ / FerroDense™ continues to gain ground in many new and varied applications and industries.
Available as standard grades or tailor made to unique and precise specifications Ferromin is easily produced and placed using standard equipment.
