Refractory combinations are chosen to provide optimum protection for specific casting conditions, whilst maintaining a cost effective solution. The section thickness of the casting is a good measure of the casting conditions that will prevail and the type of casting defects which the coating must overcome. By ensuring the correct refractory combination, complemented by optimised application rheology, casting defects are minimised and surface integrity is ensured.

A full range of specialist products is also available to cover specific applications, such as prevention of flake reversion in ductile iron.
