Shaped & Monolithic Refractories
Refractory Castables
Monolithic refractory concretes mixed with water on site and installed by casting, shotcreting or gunning. Because they cure into a joint-free lining, they close the seams through which slag and melt would otherwise penetrate, and they suit complex geometries that brickwork cannot follow.
