ARGEX TITANIUM INC. - WHAT WE DO

Titanium dioxide pigment (TiO2) is an inorganic white solid used as a pigment found in a variety of products such as coatings, plastics, food, cosmetics and pharmaceutical products. It is the brightest and whitest pigment available today and is used to create whiteness and opacity in products such as paint, toothpaste, sunscreen and many foods.

Argex’s patented extraction process for pigment grade TiO2 production allows us to capture the entire supply chain in one process. We uniquely convert low cost ilmenite into high purity TiO2 that meets the rigorous requirements of the coating and plastic industries, all while maintaining high energy efficiency, low emissions and a closed-loop design.

Our new Valleyfield plant will house the company's first industrial scale titanium dioxide (TiO2) production facility.
