Premier Periclase Ltd. produces Seawater Sintermagnesia (also known as Periclase or Deadburned Magnesia) and other Magnesia products at its plant in Drogheda, on the east coast of Ireland

Premier Periclase, which commenced production in 1980, is acknowledged as a world leader in the supply of refractory grade seawater sintermagnesia and related products.

The company supplies Sintermagnesia to the major producers of basic refractories throughout the world - including Europe, North America, Asia and elsewhere.

Premier Periclase produces the highest quality Large Crystal Sintermagnesia in the world. The company’s unique products are used in the most severe wear areas of Steel, Cement, Lime, Glass and Non-Ferrous Metals and in other refractory applications. Our products are a cost effective alternative to Fused Magnesias.

Premier Periclase has maintained its leading position for more than 20 years through ongoing investment in its products, processes and people.

Premier Periclase also manufactures ECOMAG, an aqueous Magnesium Hydroxide Suspension that is sold in Ireland and the UK. It is a safe, environmentally friendly and cost effective alternative to Sodium Hydroxide for neutralisation and heavy metal removal of acidic wastewater streams.

Our consistent quality and uniformity comes from the use of selected highest quality raw materials – Seawater and Limestone, along with energy in the form of Natural Gas, Petroleum Coke and Heavy Fuel Oil.

These raw materials, combined with the most advanced reaction, calcining, sintering and control technology give Premier Periclase a consistency of quality unsurpassed in the Magnesia world
