ACCELERATED TESTING, STRATEGIC VALUE

The validation was delivered within just five business days—far faster than the 30-day cycle typical of academic testing. This rapid feedback loop allows HPQ to refine its process with real-time industry input and make informed adjustments between tests. The partnership is expected to improve the speed, precision, and cost-efficiency of product development as HPQ progresses toward commercial output.

LOOKING AHEAD

While the current test confirms pilot-scale success, HPQ has stated that further optimization is underway. The insights from the global manufacturer will help improve material quality, reduce impurities, and support the company’s path to larger-scale operations.

Next steps include: 

  • Additional pilot batch testing 
  • Enhanced performance based on third-party guidance
  • Ongoing collaboration through established LOIs with global players

FINAL TAKE

With third-party validation now secured, HPQ is gaining meaningful momentum. Its direct-from-quartz plasma process represents a potential leap forward in how fumed silica is produced—offering advantages in cost, sustainability, and scalability. While commercial-grade production remains a near-term target, today’s milestone offers clear confirmation that HPQ’s disruptive technology is working—and gaining attention in a multi-billion-dollar global industry.

WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW

  • First-Mover Advantage: HPQ is the only known company with a proven direct process from quartz to fumed silica—cutting cost, emissions, and complexity.
  • Two Global Giants Testing Samples: One under LOI, another under NDA and re-engaging after prior testing—signaling escalating interest and competitive optionality.
  • Modular, Scalable Tech: Enables regional production with lower capex to capitalize on tariff wars and ESG mandates.
  • Domestic Market Opportunity: Canada’s $150–200M USD fumed silica market currently has no Canadian manufacturer — HPQ is positioned to fill that gap.

When the $10 Billion industry leading manufacturer asks for early samples of your product — before you’re even ready to ship — it signals more than interest. It signals intent. HPQ Silicon $HPQ / $HPQFF, alongside partner PyroGenesis, has entered a critical phase in its commercialization path for fumed silica — an essential compound used in everything from cosmetics to construction.

HPQ’s one-step quartz-to-fumed silica process eliminates the toxic chemicals, high emissions, and billion-dollar infrastructure typically required by incumbents who are working with outdated processes. That innovation is now moving out of the pilot plant and into the hands of world-leading producers.

THE MILESTONE THAT MATTERS

HPQ has shipped its first batch of fumed silica to a leading global manufacturer Evonik for evaluation. This follows third-party validation at the lab level and successful scale-up to pilot production.

“This collaboration gives us access to over 80 years of real-world manufacturing and market expertise—an advantage that accelerates our development and strengthens our commercialization efforts.”
 — Bernard Tourillon, CEO, HPQ Silicon

A second global player, which had previously received a small test batch and is under NDA, has also re-engaged — requesting additional material from a higher-quality production run. The significance: HPQ now has multiple industry leaders testing samples, placing the company in a far stronger commercial negotiation position than ever before.

THE STRATEGIC OUTLOOK

Rather than lock into early-stage agreements, HPQ is preserving flexibility to pursue the most advantageous commercial path — whether via joint ventures, licensing, or direct production. With a clean, modular process that eliminates toxic byproducts and avoids billion-dollar capex, HPQ is not just participating in a $2B+ market — it’s challenging its foundation.

For investors, this isn’t merely a materials science breakthrough. It’s a potential paradigm shift. With validation underway, commercial discussions accelerating, and strategic optionality intact, HPQ is emerging as a first mover with the technology and timing on its side.

  • Cost Advantage: Traditional plants cost up to $150 million. HPQ’s model requires a fraction of that—making it economically and environmentally superior.
  • Global Relevance: Amid new tariffs and reshoring trends, HPQ offers a local, low-emission alternative to imported materials from China and Europe.

BOLD DISRUPTION OF AN 80-YEAR-OLD INDUSTRY

HPQ Silicon has reached the most significant milestone in its history: independent analysis has confirmed its proprietary Fumed Silica Reactor (FSR) produced commercial-grade material. This breakthrough disrupts a global industry still reliant on a toxic, energy-intensive process that hasn’t meaningfully changed since 1944.

Fumed silica is essential in everyday products like cosmetics, toothpaste, batteries, and paints. Traditional production requires converting quartz into silicon metal, processing it with corrosive chemicals, and incinerating it with hydrogen gas. HPQ’s process skips all that—producing fumed silica in a single step from raw quartz, with lower emissions, lower costs, and no hazardous byproducts.

The validation? It comes from a third-party microscopy analysis (conducted at one of Montreal’s top research universities), which confirmed that HPQ’s pilot-scale product matches the morphology and structure of established, high-purity industry standards.

STRATEGIC INTEREST FROM A GLOBAL LEADER

This milestone reinforces HPQ’s previously signed Letter of Intent with Evonik Industries, a $10 billion German chemical company that invented fumed silica and dominates the global market. With the technology now proven at a 20x lab scale, the door opens to further technical evaluations—and eventual commercial engagement.

“We’ve replicated lab-scale results at 20x scale and confirmed it through side-by-side imaging. This is the single biggest milestone in HPQ’s history.”
— Bernard Tourillon, CEO

WHAT’S NEXT

With this third-party validation in hand, HPQ is moving quickly to capitalize. Conversations with Evonik are already underway to determine whether this latest material batch will be shipped for qualification. 

Other major fumed silica producers—previously awaiting test results—have resumed discussions. Internally, HPQ continues optimizing the grade and consistency of its product through additional test cycles. With its pilot plant operating smoothly and yielding better-than-expected output, HPQ is now mapping the path to commercial production—built on scalable, industry-standard components. The momentum is real, and the company is positioning itself as a clean-tech leader in a global market ready for disruption.
