Ferroglobe PLC produces and sells silicon metal, and silicon and manganese-based alloys. It provides silicone metal that are used in a range of applications, including construction-related products, electronics, personal care items, and health care, as well as by primary and secondary aluminum producers. The company also offers silicomanganese, which is used as a deoxidizing agent in the steel manufacturing process; and ferromanganese that is used as a deoxidizing, desulphurizing, and degassing agent in the removal of nitrogen and other harmful elements from steel. In addition, it offers ferrosilicon products that are used to produce stainless steel, carbon steel, and various other steel alloys, as well as to manufacture electrodes and aluminum; calcium silicon for deoxidation and desulfurization of liquid steel, cast iron pipes coating production, and welding process of powder metal and in pyrotechnics, as well as control the shape, size, and distribution of oxide and sulfide inclusions; and foundry products, such as nodularizers and inoculants for production of iron. Further, the company provides silica fume, a by-product of the electrometallurgical process of silicon metal and ferrosilicon. Additionally, it operates quartz mines in South Africa, Spain, the United States, and Canada; low-ash metallurgical coal mines in the United States; and hydroelectric power plant in France, as well as procures coal, manganese ore, quartz, petroleum and metallurgical coke, electrodes, and additive metals. It serves silicone chemical producers; aluminum and steel manufacturers; auto companies and their suppliers; ductile iron foundries; manufacturers of photovoltaic solar cells and computer chips; and concrete producers.
