By including selected additives, the products' properties can be tailored to suit a wide variety of applications in order to achieve optimal refractory results.

The combination of the described criteria ensures that the gunning materials are extremely easy to work with and can be used with all standard machinery. This includes the use of manipulators, of course.

Once our high-quality products are applied, you can expect a long service life – and thus also great value for money. 

Our high-quality repair masses are made with carefully selected raw materials. They are marked by a particularly high degree of purity as well as specially tailored grain shapes, sizes and crystalline structures designed for our mixtures. The number of impurities is kept to a minimum so that the use at high temperatures is safe.

The bond, which is custom-tailored for each specific application, ensures usability on hot surfaces, extremely fast bonding and strong mechanical strength throughout the entire temperature range.
