Beyond Supply – How Africhem Partners with Mines to Maximize Recovery Rates
For over three decades, Africhem has built a reputation as more than just a chemical supplier. In a highly competitive mining landscape where efficiency and profitability depend heavily on chemical performance, Africhem stands out by positioning itself as a strategic partner, not a transactional vendor.
At the core of this partnership approach is Africhem’s deep expertise in extractive metallurgy and a firm belief that reagent supply should be guided by performance, not just volume. Africhem collaborates closely with mine operators, technical managers, and plant supervisors to ensure that reagents are carefully selected, tested, and applied according to the specific characteristics of the client’s ore body.
“Every ore deposit is different, and so is our approach to it.”

Maximizing Recovery Through On-Site Support
Every ore deposit is different — which is why Africhem tailors its reagent strategies to suit the mineralogy, processing method, and environmental conditions of each site. This application-first mindset leads to higher recovery rates, reduced reagent waste, and measurable improvements in overall plant performance.
Africhem also invests in on-site technical support, providing dosing equipment, application technology, and continuous performance monitoring. These services not only enhance operational reliability but also provide long-term cost savings for clients by minimizing downtime and reagent overuse.
Creating Value Through Collaboration
In an industry where margins are tight and expectations are high, Africhem’s collaborative, data-driven model helps clients unlock more value from their operations. This holistic approach transforms chemical supply into a source of competitive advantage — a true differentiator in today’s market.
“Our success is measured by our clients' recovery rates and cost savings.”
