Chemtrade manufactures zinc oxide at three North American locations – Leeds, SC; Kalama, WA; and Trois Rivieres, QC  – and markets the product under the trade name CPROX and as Zinc Oxide.

Chemtrade’s zinc oxide is formed as a precipitate in a water solution which produces a very porous particle that is highly specialized to specific applications. This differs from the standard zinc oxides available today, which are produced in a hydrometallurgical process commonly called the “Wet Chemistry” method.

Chemtrade zinc oxide is very free-flowing, has a high surface area (20-30m²/g), low bulk density.  The product is shipped in bulk pneumatic railcars, or supersacks.

For many applications, our zinc oxide products provide a highly reactive, superior handling alternative to both French and American Process zinc oxide, and is a cost effective alternative to French Process zinc oxide.
