Mars Mineral, a leading provider of pelletising technology, is enhancing its manufacturing capabilities through a new investment at its parent company, Woodward Inc.
Woodward, a precision metal fabricator, is expanding its square footage and installing a state-of-the-art shape cutting/layout burning machine to support increased production efficiency and precision.
This investment will further refine the fabrication of Mars Mineral’s advanced pelletising equipment, ensuring high-quality manufacturing for industries including recovered carbon black, biochar, energy storage, and mineral processing. The new burning machine enhances precision cutting and material processing, optimizing the production of components critical to pelletising systems.
“Mars Mineral has built its reputation on providing high-performance pelletising technologies backed by decades of process expertise,” said Clayton Woodward, owner and president of both Mars Mineral and Woodward Inc. “By investing in advanced fabrication technology, we’re ensuring that our customers receive equipment engineered to the highest standards of quality and reliability.”
The facility expansion and equipment installation will enhance Mars Mineral’s ability to meet the increasing demand for sustainable pelletising solutions, particularly as industries seek innovative ways to repurpose carbon-based byproducts into valuable materials.
Construction is expected to be completed by the 4th quarter of 2025.
