01Capabilities

Innovative, customer-oriented, refractory specialists.

We design and produce ceramic refractory shapes that hold up under the conditions other materials can't: repeated thermal cycling, molten-metal contact, abrasive load, and corrosive atmospheres. High-temperature firing of our crucibles and ladles dramatically reduces inclusions and helps our customers run cleaner casts and longer campaigns.

High-temperature stability

Engineered for repeated cycling and corrosive atmospheres.

Material breadth

High-purity alumina, mullite, zirconia, fused silica, and SiC.

Standard & custom shapes

From cataloged geometries to parts designed around your tool.

Documented quality

Consistent performance, lot-traceable production.

02Industries served

Where heat, abrasion, and tolerance converge.

All industries
01

Investment Casting

Crucibles, ladles, spouts, and ram materials — supplied to investment foundries for over 40 years.

02

Thermal Processing

Refractory shapes for firing ceramics, calcining powders, and sintering powdered metal components.

03

Crucibles & Ladles

High-temperature-fired crucibles from 1 to 4,000 lbs and ladles in open-top or teapot designs.

04

Art Glass

Round-bottom and straight-wall glass crucibles formulated for the studio and production glass industry.

05

Kiln Furniture

High-purity alumina setters, posts, and supports built for thermal cycling and abrasion.

06

Custom Engineering

If we don't have a part that fits, our team designs one — from prototype to production.

03Product families

Built to a spec, not a stock list.

Every shape we ship is engineered for a thermal, chemical, and mechanical envelope. If we don't have what you need, our sales team designs a new part for your application.
