Gypsum
High-Purity Calcium Sulfate Hydrate
Quick Answer
What is Pakistan Gypsum? Gypsum sourced from Pakistan is a high-grade industrial mineral known for its premium quality, specifically high-purity calcium sulfate hydrate. Indus Minerals exports this material in bulk via Karachi Port to markets including Bangladesh, UAE, Oman, Indonesia.
We supply superior quality, natural Gypsum (Calcium Sulfate Dihydrate) extracted from extensive deposits across Pakistan. Known for its high purity (>90%), our gypsum is an essential raw material for the global cement industry, agriculture (as a soil conditioner), and the manufacturing of high-grade plaster and drywall/gypsum boards.
