Refinery-grade elemental sulphur.
Most of the world's sulphur is recovered at oil refineries and gas plants, then formed into granules or prills for safe handling. We source formed sulphur from producers and marketers in the Gulf, the Mediterranean and Asia, and match the origin and port to the buyer's route.
Every offer states the origin, loading port, quantity per month and delivery window, and every cargo is inspected at loading.
