Ivanhoe Industries Inc

Ivanhoe Industries Inc Ivanhoe Industries is the leader in antifoams, emulsifiers, hydrophobic silica & release agents •

Ivanhoe Industries operates two independent FSSC 22000 - GFSI Certified specialty chemical manufacturing facilities. The two facilities have similar capabilities and provide redundant manufacturing assets for nearly all the products we offer. Together the facilities provide over 100,000 square feet of manufacturing and warehousing space. We have the ability to blend antifoam formulations in both s

mall and large capacity with a number of types of milling equipment to produce emulsions or to finely disperse solid particles in various types of carriers. We operate numerous hot oil and steam reactors with varying auxiliaries and sizes that give us a wide range of capabilities and flexibility to manufacture both pilot scale and large scale non-ionic surfactants and hydrophobic silica. Ivanhoe has two packaging lines for our hydrophobic silica that can produce both small kraft bags as well as large bulk bags of product. Our capabilities are complete with state-of-the-art analytical, R&D, and application labs. Our analytical lab ensures that all our products comply with our quality and foods safety standards and supports many of our R&D efforts. The R&D lab has all the capabilities of our full scale product plants to facilitate the development of new products from lab to pilot to production scale. The applications lab assists in new product development and often allows our customers to outsource their foam control R&D to Ivanhoe to reduce the burden of qualifying new defoamer products.

We offer a wide range of non-ionic used to manufacture defoaming . We have a wide range of both low HLB and high HLM emulsifiers that are needed to form stable emulsions. We have a broad knowledge of regulatory requirements and can assist in selecting the optimum emulsification system for your specific defoamer applications.

Surfactants are often used alone or in combination with other defoaming actives to formulate effective defoaming agents. We manufacture a range of surfactants specifically designed for their defoaming properties. We are able to custom develop surfactants specific for your defoamer formulations.

We offer foam control agents and non-ionic surfactants for the lubricant industry. While we focus most of our product development and application efforts on , our foam control agents and are used in many types of lubricants including:








We have more than 40 years’ experience formulating and testing foam control agents for metalworking fluids.

As a part of our valuable services, we will screen and test our foam control agents in our customer’s media for both stability and foam control performance. We have the ability to compare competitive products to our formulations to select the most effective foam control agent and reduce the demand on your R&D resources.

Agents for Lubricants
We manufacture a wide range of foam control products for lubricant applications. Lubricants contain many different types of components that are potential causes of foam, and excessive foam can negatively impact the lubricating efficiency and cooling properties of the lubricant.

Our are especially effective in to prevent the negative effects of excessive foam when used as tank-side additives or as part of a concentrate package in synthetic, semi-synthetic, and soluble oil based metalworking fluids.


We operate hot oil esterification reactors to manufacture non-ionic surfactants that have a wide range of applications in lubricants.

Many of our non-ionic surfactants are used in direct and are approved for use in lubricants.

Our full service laboratory can design esters for your specific application, and we have a range of reactor sizes including pilot to meet your supply requirements.

We manufacture to eliminate the foam generated by processes as well as and that can be utilized to formulate a wide range of water treatment chemical formulations.

Agents for Water Treatment Applications
Our diverse product line includes silicone or non-silicone, oil or water based, or even surfactant based defoamers that are carefully selected for how the foam is generated and the types of contaminates that stabilize the foam.

Solutions for Water Treatment
We manufacture many of the components that are used to formulate our defoaming agents and we operate a full applications lab that allows us to custom formulate defoaming agents while carefully considering regulatory, environmental, and downstream processing requirements.

for Water Treatment
We operate hot oil esterification reactors to manufacture non-ionic surfactants that have a wide range of application. Many of our surfactants have direct and indirect food clearances appropriate for use in water treatment formulations. Our full service laboratory can design esters for your specific application and we have a range of reactor sizes including pilot to meet your supply requirements.
