About KromTech Inc.

Driving the next generation of ferrochrome production for a sustainable stainless-steel future

Value Proposition

KromTech is pioneering a new generation of ferrochrome production through its Direct Reduction of Chromium (DRC) technology - transforming chromite resources into high-value products within a net-zero-ready and circular industrial framework.

DRC’s modular production concept offers regional and emerging chromite producers an energy-efficient, cost-effective, and environmentally superior alternative to traditional smelting, while significantly lowering barriers to entry through reduced CAPEX, OPEX, and infrastructure requirements.

Beyond ferrochrome production, DRC is designed as an integrated zero-waste system. Process residues and fine fractions are engineered for downstream utilization in value-added applications - including refractory, construction, and mineral-carbonation pathways - converting what are traditionally waste streams into additional revenue sources and carbon-management solutions.

As a scalable and flexible platform, DRC can function as a standalone ferrochrome plant or as a pre-reduction process feeding EAF-based operations, enabling seamless vertical integration with stainless-steel manufacturing. By investing in KromTech, stakeholders gain access to a commercially compelling technology that delivers competitive returns while supporting the global transition to low-carbon, resource-efficient metallurgical production.
