Calderys at Thermotec 2026: showcasing energy-efficient refractory solutions
Thermotec is Japan's largest and only exhibition dedicated to industrial furnaces and thermal technology, and this edition focuses on energy saving, carbon-emission reduction and sustainability. The event is a valuable opportunity for Calderys to engage directly with furnace operators and reinforce its position as a trusted refractory partner across the foundry, iron & steel, and thermal-process industries.
At the booth, Calderys will showcase a focused set of solutions, each addressing a specific challenge faced by furnace operators:
- CALDE® SOL: a range of no-cement, sol-gel bonded castables designed to be brought up to temperature without a dedicated drying stage, helping operators shorten commissioning and reduce energy use.
- CALDE® FD (Fast Dry): fast-dry castables that maintain the dense, high-strength performance of conventional linings while reducing heat-up time, cutting maintenance downtime and turnaround time for major repairs.
- RCF-free insulation solutions: lightweight, ceramic-fibre-free insulating castables that improve thermal efficiency and support safer, more sustainable installations.
Together, these solutions reflect Calderys' broader approach to the thermal industry: combining product performance with practical, on-site value – including faster installation, reduced downtime, longer lining life and lower energy consumption – across foundry, iron & steel, aluminum and waste-to-energy applications.
Calderys looks forward to meaningful conversations as the industry advances toward more efficient, durable and sustainable furnace operations.
