5E Advanced Metals announces commencement of LCD glass trial

5E Advanced Materials announced that the major domestic LCD glass manufacturer, to which 5E shipped twenty tons of borates, has commenced testing with 5E’s boric acid being dispatched into the glass furnace. In October 2025, 5E shipped twenty tons of high-quality boric acid overseas for the customer’s final phase of testing. Previously, the customer had performed a successful laboratory bench testing program where 5E’s boric acid passed all required specifications. Upon the successful bench trial, the customer required 5E to perform a supply-chain trial where two tons of product were shipped in a container across the Pacific Ocean. 5E’s product performed well during the second trial and the successful supply chain trial paved the way for the final tank trial test.
