Today, HPQ is proud to announce that the leading global fumed silica manufacturer has confirmed that the material tested—is indeed fumed silica. This new milestone represents another validation of the scalability of our FSR technology and the uniqueness of our one-step plasma-based process to produce fumed silica directly from quartz.\n \n\n With HSPI’s technology supplier,\n \n\n PyroGenesis Inc.\n \n\n (TSX:\n \n PYR\n \n , OTCQX:\n \n PYRGF\n \n , FRA:\n \n 8PY1\n \n ), now able to collect material produced by the FSR in the baghouse section—and with a leading global fumed silica manufacturer able to deliver comprehensive material analyses in approximately five business days (compared to the 30+ days typically required by university laboratories)—the critical feedback loop between testing, analysis, and process optimization has been significantly streamlined. This acceleration enhances HSPI’s ability to fine-tune its process and improve product quality to meet market specifications.\n \n\n\n “Gaining direct access to the testing facilities of the world’s leading fumed silica manufacturer—an organization wi...
