Beryllium production

Beryllium production is deployed at the Ulba Metallurgical Plant. This is one of 3 companies in the world with full production cycle from ore concentrate processing to finished product with the specified quality parameters, the world's largest supplier of primary series of beryllium  and alloys based on it.

Flowsheet, developed at the enterprise, allows to process almost any type of beryllium-containing materials.

Unique technological equipment of the enterprise allows to produce a wide range of products on the basis of beryllium and its alloys. Plants and gas-static hydrostatic compression provides the getting products with isotropic properties.

700-800°C

Beryllium alloys, being 1.5 times lighter than aluminum, are more solid than many specialty steels. They retain a strength to a temperature of 700-800 degrees of Celsius.

Structural materials based on beryllium have  ease, and strength, corrosion resistance and resistance to high temperatures. Beryllium alloys, being 1.5 times lighter than aluminum, are more solid than many specialty steels. They retain a strength to a temperature of 700-800 degrees of Celsius.Beryllium is used in various industries: electronics, automotive, oil and gas industry, nuclear energy, medicine, aerospace. However, the high brittleness of the metal does not allow use of beryllium as a structural metal.
