About Chemical Mineral Toll Processing
Chemical mineral toll processing is a business arrangement where one company supplies raw materials and a processing partner handles the screening, blending, coating, or packaging to finished specifications.
This model is common in industries with high infrastructure and equipment costs that make in-house processing impractical. It also serves companies that have their own processing capabilities but need additional capacity, as well as businesses developing and commercializing new mineral-based products that require flexible, scalable production.
Toll processing allows manufacturers, OEMs, and product developers to outsource their mineral processing needs without the capital investment of building out their own facility.

Chemical Mineral Toll Processing FAQs
What is the difference between toll processing and contract manufacturing?
Toll processing means the client owns the raw materials and pays a processor like AGSCO to screen, blend, coat, or package them to specification. Contract manufacturing typically means the processor sources the materials as well.
What are the minimum order quantities for mineral toll processing?
AGSCO handles chemical mineral toll processing orders ranging from single-pound packages to 4,000-pound super sacks. There are no rigid minimums, so we can support pilot runs, small batches, and full-scale production.
How long does custom mineral processing take?
Turnaround times depend on the scope of services, material volume, and specification complexity. Contact our team with your project details for an accurate timeline.
Does AGSCO provide certificates of analysis for processed materials?
Yes. As an ISO 9001-certified facility, AGSCO maintains strict quality controls and can provide certificates of analysis, batch documentation, and compliance records for processed materials.
