ESM made a major commitment in the area of Ultra fine Magnesium Powders and Fine magnesium Powder for U.S. Military applications.  ESM’s most important asset in entering this challenging area is our experienced operations and technical staff with respect to safety and efficient operations with magnesium powder production. ESM started investing in sophisticated laboratory and production equipment in 2003 and recently completed a significant plant expansion to double our production capacity in 2005 at our Saxonburg Pennsylvania location to meet the needs of our Military Contractor customers.  The technical innovations we are introducing to improve operating safety, lower production cost and reduce product variability are significant for Military applications in this hazardous product area.  Using Laser Particle analysis techniques for every drum produced and super efficient Particle Screening Practices and innovative and safe blending practices, we see significant growth potential in supplying Fine and Ultra fine Magnesium Powder to the contractors for the US Military. Our management is enthusiastic in providing the necessary capital to meet our new customers needs, as we grow further.

 

  ESM is a Registered to ISO 9001:2000 Corporation in good standing and is focused on meeting the safety quality and organizational standards required for this designation.   Product quality is a team effort between our Quality and Operations Departments and both departments have equal responsibilities in producing a quality product to meet our customer’s expectations.

 

Another innovative area ESM is investigating is Nano Magnesium Powders. The interest in applications for these new technologies is strong with our customers and ESM is positioning our organization to participate in commercial applications.
