We know that the global demand for water today exceeds the supply and that responsible conservation efforts must be a part of any sustainable solution.

Fairmount Minerals recycles nearly all of the water we use in our operations by employing a closed-loop process. In the simplest terms, this means we bring in water, use it to wash sand, and then filter it clean before starting the process all over again. While we focused our efforts in 2009 primarily on developing new filtration products for the burgeoning issues related to water scarcity, we plan to make water measurement a key activity in our operations in the near future.
