Established in 1995, Castec Inc. was originally a Refractory Precast supplier; however, with a change of ownership in 2006, w ... e have expanded to include Refractory Tear-out and Installation. These additional capabilities have enabled Castec to bring added value to our customers, allowing them to choose one company for all of their refractory needs as opposed to sourcing out numerous contractors. Our business is made up of refractory maintenance, contract, and project work in international markets including The Americas, Asia, Europe and South Africa. We carry out major rebuilds and outages as well as small call-outs and are able to mobilize quickly to respond in an emergency. With deep roots in the Northern Ontario Nickel-Copper processing industry, Castec has also undertaken maintenance and project work in many different industries including Steel, Platinum, Cement & Lime, Pulp & Paper, Aluminum, Incineration, Power Generation and Hydrocarbon Processing. At Castec, we believe that because we tear refractory out, we have great advantages and insight when it comes time for reinstallation. One contractor performing both tasks ensures continuity throughout the project. We evaluate our customers’ refractory program as a whole, understanding that the removal of damaged refractory aids the planning of future linings. read more
