PROFILE |
 |
Producing specialty minerals and chemicals turns out to be just the right cup of tea for English China Clays (ECC). ECC, a subsidiary of French mining concern IMERYS (formerly IMETAL), is the world's #1 producer of kaolin, a fine white clay used to make china tableware, paper, paper coatings, and paint. Along with kaolin (also called china clay), ECC's minerals division produces calcium carbonate, calcined clay, and other minerals used in sinks, toilets, and electrical insulators. ECC has sold its US-based Calgon corporation (water-treatment chemicals, surfactants, and biocides) to French utility Suez Lyonnaise des Eaux.
