Refractory systems
Alumina, silica, magnesia and related minerals for high-temperature linings and repairs.
Markets we serve
Metals Industry
Minerals, additives and process materials for foundries, mills and metal finishing.
Materials for Metals Industry
Process minerals for metals production and finishing
Foundries, mills and metal processors use minerals to manage heat, chemistry, flow, mould performance and surface condition. Consistency is essential because these materials interact directly with molten metal and high-temperature equipment.
Redwater Materials supplies refractory minerals, fluxing materials, carbon products, metal powders and treatment compounds for ferrous and non-ferrous metal operations.
Applications
Where these materials are used
Selected mineral and specialty material applications across the metals industry market.
Foundry operations
Bentonite, silica and release materials used in moulding, casting and core systems.
Fluxing and slag control
Lime, dolomite and specialty mineral additions used to manage melt chemistry.
Surface treatment
Abrasive and chemical materials for cleaning, preparation and metal finishing.
Powder metallurgy
Metal and graphite powders for compacted, sintered and engineered components.
Material performance
Chemistry and thermal behaviour matter together
Metal-processing materials may be selected by chemistry, grain size, density, refractoriness and reaction behaviour. A product that works in one furnace or alloy system may not suit another.
- Controlled chemistry
- Sieve and particle-size data
- Moisture and bulk density
- Thermal performance information
- Consistent source and lot certification
Relevant material families
We support custom blends, distribution, testing and recurring supply programs for approved metals-industry materials.
