Douglas Dietrich, chairman and chief executive officer of Minerals Technologies, spoke at the company's 2026 Investor Day, held at its Bethlehem, Pennsylvania facility. During the event, he discussed the company's growth strategies and financial targets, noting that the specialty minerals and high-temperature technologies product lines have contributed over 3% to the company's earnings per share over the past five years. He attributed this growth to expansion in core markets, innovation in products for the electric arc furnace market, and the adoption of green sand bond technologies in North America and Asia. Dietrich also addressed the company's position in the critical minerals supply chain, stating that Minerals Technologies is the only producer of calcium metal in the Western Hemisphere, with other producers located in China and Russia. He described calcium core wire as essential for steel casting through thin slab casting machines, citing over 30 million tons of thin slab casting capacity in the United States. Additionally, he noted that government efforts to onshore production of critical minerals tied to national security, including rare earth materials, rely on calcium metal for refining heavy rare earth elements used in high-temperature applications. Regarding potential acquisitions, Dietrich said the company has maintained a strong balance sheet and retains the capability to analyze and integrate deals, though he declined to predict timing, stating the company is "ready" and "patient."
