We work with furnace manufacturers and end users – businesses that rely on their kilns to run smoothly. Generally you come to us for two reasons:
- you are tackling particular problems, such as breakages caused by thermal shock. But the industrial ceramic and refractory products you have used so far have not worked well. You face more downtime from furnace failure and you need better replacement parts fast. Tomorrow, if not today
- you want to improve an aspect of your furnace. You need advice on the most appropriate technical ceramic or refractory. Then you will increase your productivity.
We will help with both. Over the last 70 years we have built up a global network of reliable and high quality partners. Because we are not tied to one manufacturer we can:
- keep popular standard parts in stock so you get them immediately
- procure other components you need quickly, in the quantities you want
- explore new options for persistent problems that have been impossible to solve so far. Our technical advisers will help to pinpoint the cause, whether it’s linked to the working environment, atmosphere, mechanical stresses or installation and handling. Once we find the source, we can suggest solutions.
All our manufacturing partners have their own processing technologies, which deliver different properties to each ceramic or refractory they produce. This gives you more choice and a better chance to solve the problems that undermine your productivity. We can offer you ceramic and refractory solutions that:
- withstand extreme temperatures and temperature changes
- resist corrosion and contamination for longer
- need reconditioning and replacing less frequently
