We’re experts and innovators focused on solving challenges, embracing change and growing.
Product Elements
Metallurgical glass
Our ForgeOx products are glass-based, engineered solutions to help process alloys that are custom-formulated to provide superior lubrication, protection against oxidation and thermal insulation. Each glass lubricant is engineered to meet the needs of the forger.
Foundry hot toppings and slag coagulants
Our exothermic and insulating toppings prevent heat loss and costly shrink defects. Our slag coagulants are designed for consistent prevention of slag carryover to castings
Mastertop
Slag-Getter
Foundry water-based refractory coatings
Coatings to prevent burn-in defects without teardrops or runs.
E-Cast
E-Shield

Foundry engineered sand additives
Our anti-veining additives are engineered to effectively prevent veining and other casting defects.
Veinseal
Foundry specialty sands
Our Zircon sand insulates cores and molds with low thermal expansion properties.
Zir-Cast
SureStart ladle sands
Our array of ladle sands based on ladle size, mill conditions, run time, temperature and other variables create a custom approach to customer needs. Our technical service team works individually with each mill to determine what engineered product is best.
Inhibitor solutions
These inhibitor solutions have been designed to serve in a wide variety of polyester applications to improve shelf stability by slowing the premature gelation of the resin matrix.

Thickener dispersions
Designed for polyester molding applications, these products are the most consistently reactive thickener dispersions available. These thickeners help compounders and molders seeking to optimize consistent thickening and controlled molding viscosity.
The Plasticolors AM products are based on magnesium oxide and the Plasticolors PG on magnesium hydroxide chemistry. Besides standard thickeners also low viscous and food contact thickeners are available. Where very special requirements have to be met, customer-specific formulations can be developed.
