Reimagining magnesium oxide for a sustainable future.

About us

ECO2 Magnesia produces ultra-pure (99.55%) magnesium oxide (MgO) in an innovative and eco-responsible manner, in contrast with traditional, energy-intensive, CO2-heavy processes. By using a non-extractive, recycled waste feedstock—one that repurposes discarded mine tailings—ECO2 Magnesia significantly reduces both energy consumption and carbon emissions compared to traditional methods.

This groundbreaking technology not only minimizes environmental impact but also supports the circular economy, transforming an underutilized resource into an ultra-pure industrial mineral. As the world's first sustainable, low-carbon footprint MgO producer, ECO2 Magnesia sets a new standard for innovation, energy efficiency, and environmental responsibility in the mining and materials industry.

WHAT IS MAGNESIUM OXIDE?

It's the world's only eco-friendly MgO!

ECO2 Magnesia is part of a new generation of companies determined to contribute to the wave to decarbonize technological and industrial processes to minimize their ecological footprint.

 

ECO2 Magnesia's vision goes beyond the traditional, linear economic model of extract, manufacture, consume, throw away. ECO2's entire chain of operations - from design to laboratory to marketing - is based on the concept of offering a “second life”: recycle, reuse and revalue.

 

ECO2 Magnesia is a project worthy of the 21st century, at the crossroads of scientific research, respect for the environment and industrial rigor.
