Established in 2008 by the late Dr. Joseph Megy, the company built its foundation on innovative proprietary process technology termed the Improved Hard Process (IHP).

The company's commitment to advancing its IHP technology is evidenced by their development of a demonstration plant, which showcases the core attributes of the process under intermediate scale operations. With an active partnership with Metso, a global engineering service contractor, NOVAPHOS INC. continues to enhance equipment and performance assurances necessary for scaling up to full commercial operations. NOVAPHOS INC., currently registered as a Florida for-profit corporation (FORP) since September 16, 2010, is dedicated to leveraging advanced technology for sustainable phosphate production in agriculture and industry.
