Pulverised Fly Ash

Pulverised Fly Ash (PFA), also known as Fly Ash, is a fine, powdery byproduct recovered from the flue gases of coal-fired power stations. Formed during the combustion of pulverized coal, PFA is composed primarily of silica, alumina, and iron — making it an exceptional supplementary material in the construction industry.

Key Characteristics

• Chemical Composition: Rich in silica and alumina
• Form: Fine particles ranging from light grey to black
• Density: Approx. 2.6 g/cm³
• Bulk Density (Settled): 550–900 kg/m³
• Pozzolanic Properties: Reacts with lime in the presence of water to form cementitious compounds

Environmental Advantage

PFA is an environmentally responsible choice. It diverts industrial waste from landfills and reduces the demand for virgin cement, cutting CO₂ emissions by up to 25% per tonne replaced. Its use also contributes to circular economy goals by repurposing a regulated waste material into a valuable construction input.

Applications

Thanks to its pozzolanic and hydraulic properties, PFA is widely used in:

• Concrete & Cement: Enhances durability, pumpability, and resistance to cracking
• Road Construction: Ideal for hydraulic binders, sub-base layers, and soil stabilization
• Bricks & Blocks: Used in hollow blocks, mosaic tiles, and lightweight construction elements
• Filler Material: Effective in paints, adhesives, and composite manufacturing

Sustainable Sourcing

Our high-grade PFA is sourced from certified facilities in Turkey and India, with volumes available for bulk supply throughout Europe, the Middle East, and Africa. All shipments comply with environmental and safety standards, and are available on FOB or delivered terms.
