What Zeotech does
Zeotech Limited (ASX: ZEO) is an Australian materials technology company developing advanced mineral products from kaolin and synthetic zeolites. Its portfolio centres on AusPozz™, a high-reactivity metakaolin Supplementary Cementitious Material (SCM) for low-carbon concrete; Toondoon Kaolin — an ultra-pure (>90% kaolinite) ore drawn from approved Mining Lease ML 80126 covering 28,000 hectares; manufactured zeolites including patent-pending Linde Type A (LTA) powder developed with The University of Queensland; and zeoteCH4®, a zeolite-based biofilter targeting fugitive methane emissions from landfill, mining, and agriculture.
The business model is enterprise sales-led into the construction materials sector. Revenue is expected to be generated from direct shipping ore (DSO) kaolin sales — underpinned by a binding 5-year, ~$200M offtake with Jiangsu Mineral Sources International Trading Co. (MSI) for 950,000 tonnes at >45% net margin — alongside planned AusPozz metakaolin production at an initial 300,000 tonnes per annum capacity from a Port of Bundaberg facility, and forward commercialisation of manufactured zeolites and zeoteCH4. Distribution is anchored by the MSI trading house globally, a MoU with Holcim Australia for low-carbon concrete applications, and direct B2B engagement with concrete producers and infrastructure projects. The company is currently pre-commercial: revenue has not been disclosed, the AusPozz Preliminary Feasibility Study was completed in June 2025 with forecast $406M NPV and 42% IRR, and the next milestones are construction of the AusPozz plant and conversion of the Holcim MoU into offtake.
Geographically the company is headquartered in Brisbane, Queensland, with its mining lease, planned manufacturing facility, and senior operational leadership all based in Queensland, and a forward distribution footprint spanning Asia-Pacific (via MSI) and Australian east-coast construction markets. The senior team combines materials science and commercial construction-materials expertise, with personnel drawn from Imerys Minerals, Holcim Australia, and Boral Limited, supported by research partnerships with the University of Queensland and Griffith University.
