What euroMinerals does
euroMinerals GmbH is an Austrian specialty industrial minerals processor headquartered in Lassing, Styria, operating a single-site production facility built around a talc mine dating to 1891. The company develops and produces functional fillers and performance extenders sold to B2B manufacturers in paints and coatings (the primary vertical), pharmaceuticals and cosmetics, plastics and polymers, and paper and packaging. Its product portfolio comprises seven branded lines - intalc (high-purity talc), indolo (finely ground dolomite), inzeo (natural clinoptilolite-zeolite), inbond (talc-TiO2 composite for partial titanium dioxide replacement), incomp (talc-dolomite co-ground compound), inpcc (precipitated calcium carbonate), and inlime (ultrafine calcium oxide/hydroxide) - built from four core raw materials processed via co-grinding, homogenization, crushing, grinding, drying, and compacting.
The company's competitive positioning rests on proprietary co-grinding technology that mechanically compounds different minerals into new functional structures (notably the incomp and inbond lines), custom manufacturing across a wide fineness range (8 μm to over 100 μm topcut), and a fully certified operating stack including ISO 9001/14001/45001, IPEC-GMP extension for pharmaceutical and cosmetic applications, and the 2024 EcoVadis Platinum rating placing it in the TOP 1% of assessed companies globally. Founded in its current independent corporate form in 2007 (following the 2007 takeover of the mine production site), the company rebranded from Paltentaler Minerals to euroMinerals in 2017 and has been wholly owned by Schmid Industrieholding GmbH since 2015. euroMinerals has 51-100 employees, an additional sales office and warehouse in Damasławek, Poland (euroMinerals Polska Sp. z o. o.), and distributes products globally in paper bags, bigbags, and bulk/silo trucks via direct technically-trained sales staff supplemented by participation in industry trade shows such as the European Coatings Show.

Product offeringCore offering
euroMinerals develops and produces industrial mineral fillers and special extenders from talc, dolomite, zeolite, calcium carbonate, and lime through co-grinding, homogenization, crushing, grinding, drying, and compacting. Its seven branded product lines (inbond, incomp, indolo, intalc, inzeo, inpcc, inlime) are sold to manufacturers of paints and coatings, plastics, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and paper, in paper bags, bigbags, and bulk trucks.
Product overview
euroMinerals is a B2B specialist in the development and production of high-quality industrial minerals for the Paints & Coatings, Pharmaceuticals, Cosmetics, and Plastics industries. The product portfolio comprises seven branded product lines built from four core raw materials (talc, dolomite, clinoptilolite-zeolite, and titanium dioxide): intalc (high-purity talc), indolo (finely ground dolomite), inzeo (natural clinoptilolite-zeolite), inbond (talc-TiO2 composite compound), incomp (talc-dolomite co-ground compound), inpcc (precipitated calcium carbonates), and inlime (ultrafine quicklime/hydrated lime). These are sold as functional fillers and performance extenders into paints and varnishes, plastics, pharmaceuticals, and specialty paper applications.

Products and services
- inbond A composite product based on talc and titanium dioxide, produced through a multi-stage coating process that deposits TiO2 onto talcum platelets to mimic the surface structure of conventional white pigment. Used for partial TiO2 replacement in dispersion paints and street marking paints, providing color strength, high covering capacity, weather resistance, and lower sedimentation tendency for paint and coatings manufacturers.
- incomp Multi-functional special extenders based on talc and dolomite, produced through a unique co-grinding process that mechanically and permanently compounds the minerals together. Distinguished by outstanding dispersibility, high whiteness, matting effect, UV resistance, and anti-caking properties. Used in corrosion protection, construction chemistry, paints, plasters, lacquers, industrial lacquers, and plastics industry applications.
- indolo Finely and ultra-finely ground pure dolomite with whiteness up to 92% (Konica-Minolta FMY), produced to customer specifications with fineness between 8µm and 60µm topcut. Used in indoor and outdoor emulsion paints, industrial lacquers, printing inks, polyester fillers, street marking paints, and plasters. Offers excellent dispersibility, very low oil absorption, high acid stability compared to calcium carbonate, and a neutral white shade.
- intalc Top-quality talc product produced in a wide range of fineness from highly pure, macro-crystalline talc. Features distinctive platelet structure, whiteness up to 93.5% (Konica-Minolta FMY), hydrophobic character delivering a barrier effect, chemical inertness, and a controllable matting effect. Used in indoor and outdoor paints, industrial lacquers, corrosion protection systems, plasters, putties, plastics, pharmaceuticals, and personal care applications.
