Quality Minerals Calcium Carbonate is the trade name of Quality Minerals PCLís uncoated and coated calcium carbonate. It is a name that is well-known and preferred in the markets. Raw material i.e. calcite is selected from the best sources to consistently produce both coated and uncoated calcium carbonate of various particle sizes. Our calcite has typical purity content of 99% whereby purity content for food additive and pharmaceutical standard is only slightly higher at 99.3%. Reports from SGS and Thailand Ministry of Health showed that our products do not exhibit heavy metal content and hazardous substances. In addition, we comply with the RoHs Directive 2002/95/EC.
