Why Choose Us

Superior quality from the only vein graphite source on Earth

Graphite powder in bulk bag
99.5% CgMaximum Purity

Sri Lanka is the only country in the world producing commercial quantities of vein graphite — also known as Ceylon graphite or crystalline vein graphite. Unlike flake or amorphous graphite, vein graphite forms when carbon precipitates directly from hydrothermal fluids, yielding extremely high crystallinity and purity without extensive processing.

01

Unmatched In-Situ Purity

Regadera mine graphite achieves 97–99.5% carbon content directly from the vein — equivalent to processed flake grades, with no acid treatment required for standard grades.

02

High Crystallinity

Superior crystal structure gives exceptional thermal conductivity, electrical conductivity, and lubrication properties — critical for batteries, refractories and advanced materials.

03

Purity Grades 80–99.5%

We supply a full range from industrial grade (80%) to ultra-high purity (99.5%) to match your exact application and budget requirements.

04

Responsible Sourcing

Small-scale underground mining in Sri Lanka minimises land disturbance and avoids the large tailings ponds required by surface-mined flake graphite operations.

Crucibles, furnace linings and refractory bricks for steel, aluminium, and foundry applications.

⚙️

Lubricants

Dry lubricant for extreme-pressure and high-temperature environments where oils fail.

📡

EMC / Shielding

Electrically conductive graphite powder for EMI/EMC shielding in electronics and enclosures.

⚛️

Nuclear

High-purity graphite for radiation moderation and shielding in nuclear applications.

🎨

Coatings & Paints

Conductive and anti-corrosion coatings, primers and graphite paints for industrial surfaces.

🧪

Polymer Composites

Graphite-filled polymers for improved thermal conductivity, stiffness and electrical properties.

🔬

Graphene Synthesis

High-purity vein graphite is the ideal precursor for Hummers-method graphene and graphene oxide production.

Regadera Mine,
Sri Lanka

The Regadera (Ragedara) mine is one of Sri Lanka's most historic graphite deposits, in continuous operation since the early 18th century and registered as the country's No. 1 graphite mine by the British Mine Registry due to its exceptional production capacity and purity.

Sri Lanka is the only nation in the world producing commercial quantities of vein graphite — a uniquely high-crystallinity form where carbon precipitates directly from hydrothermal fluid into rock fractures, yielding natural purities from 90% to 99.5% Cg.

Finished powder is loaded at Colombo Port under standard containerised bulk export terms.
