During my 15 years in production and plant management for a large manufacturer, I learned everything I could about planning for major refractory outages. I’ve often been told that I ran the tightest and well-planned outages around. It just came naturally to me and I wouldn’t have settled for anything less. Now working on the refractory service side of things, I am able to provide our customers with the best-practices and knowledge I accumulated throughout all those years on-site. This is for sure one of the biggest values we bring to our customers today. I can help with the planning process, executing and generally help them run longer.
