Finding better ways to reduce waste and save energy are top priorities for many manufacturers. See how refined borates can help you accomplish both objectives.

Before borosilicate glass, many industries struggled with the durability of glass for their application. Discover how the development of borosilicate glass and U.S. Borax’s support shaped modern glassmaking.

Solar power offers exciting potential as a clean and endless energy source. Yet scaling it will require more efficient and durable products for harnessing the sun’s power. Discover how boron helps improve the performance and increase the lifespan of solar energy products.

U.S. Borax’s sales and logistics team attended Owens Corning’s annual supplier recognition event where we accepted two awards: Supplier of the Year for 2022 and as a finalist for Value Creation.

As we celebrate 150 years of U.S. Borax this year, we’d like to highlight our business in India. Did you know we have been supplying Indian companies with their borates needs for approximately 50 years?

From metallurgy to glassmaking, borates can enhance production environments where refractories play an important role. Borates fight corrosion, act as sintering agents, and help offset harmful emissions.

Look closely, and you’ll find a wide range of applications of borates in automobiles. In fact, auto makers find uses for borates in nearly every part and system. Borates benefit the automotive industry by providing borosilicate glass, flame retardancy, corrosion resistance, and friction resistance.

U.S. Borax is a valued research and technical partner for leading companies in the glass industry as they pursue aggressive goals for reducing carbon emissions.

Heavy industry manufacturers lay the foundations on which we build our modern life. To produce their products efficiently and cost-effectively, they depend on Dehybor as a consistent, reliable source of boric oxide.

Anhydrous boron is a more concentrated form of boron—containing 1.4 times more B₂O₃. The additional value that anhydrous products bring goes beyond the concentration difference of B₂O₃.
