According to a 2024 report by Grand View Research, the global calcium carbide market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 4.7% from 2024 to 2030, reaching over $1.2 billion. This growth is driven by expanding chemical synthesis, steelmaking, and welding industries worldwide — especially in emerging economies where infrastructure development remains strong.
Based in Inner Mongolia, China — a region strategically located near key raw material sources and major logistics corridors — Longwei Chemical operates one of the most advanced calcium carbide production facilities in Asia. With an annual capacity of 100,000 metric tons, we ensure consistent supply even during peak seasons across Europe, the Middle East, Southeast Asia, and North America.
Our modernized plant features automated feeding systems, real-time temperature monitoring, and closed-loop gas recovery units that reduce emissions while boosting efficiency. These technologies not only meet ISO 9001 standards but also exceed customer expectations for purity and consistency.
We don’t just produce calcium carbide — we engineer it. Each batch undergoes six stages of quality control: raw material inspection, calcination process verification, elemental analysis (CaC₂ ≥ 85%), moisture testing, particle size distribution, and final packaging validation. Our average purity rate is 92%, significantly higher than industry benchmarks (typically 80–85%).
This commitment to excellence has made us a preferred supplier for companies like SinoSteel Group (China), Al-Farabi Metals (UAE), and ChemSynth Labs (Germany). One client reported a 15% reduction in welding defects after switching to our high-purity product — directly improving their shop floor productivity.
In organic chemistry, our calcium carbide serves as a reliable acetylene source for synthesizing vinyl acetate monomer (VAM) — a critical building block in adhesives and coatings. In metallurgy, it acts as a deoxidizer in electric arc furnaces, enhancing steel quality and reducing impurities. For industrial cutting and welding, its consistent reactivity ensures clean, safe operations — no more unexpected delays or safety issues.
These aren't hypothetical benefits. They're what our customers experience every day — whether they're manufacturing specialty chemicals in Poland or building bridges in Saudi Arabia.
