  • ''There's very specific processing that needs to be done to make it suitable for the filtration industry, so it's fairly complex,'' [Gregg Jones] told IM. ''But what we know about the filtration industry gives us a unique advantage in terms of how to manufacture the product to make it suitable for its end use.'' ''In the filtration space it's more of a technical solution that drives the use of the product, and that's where our expertise comes into play,'' he told IM.

    Speaking to IM about the price increases, Jones explained: ''It's basically inflationary costs in our business whether it's in the mining of the ore, just general costs, costs of energy, all the things we mentioned in our press release, but it's basically just inflationary pressure we experience and we pass through to our customers.''
