Nickel

Fiberstone is the leading ceramic-steel composite solution used throughout nickel smelting plants across several continents.

Supplied as a bespoke precast shape, Fiberstone has proven to significantly improve primary and secondary nickel production processes, where conventional refractory or steel alternatives consistently fail.

The proprietary ceramic-steel composite can withstanding intermittent temperatures up to 1,700°C, ensuring Fiberstone delivers unrivalled durability in smelting, converting and anode furnace applications.

Using Fiberstone within nickel processing applications can dramatically reduce refractory‑related failures, improve campaign life, and minimise the risk of unplanned shutdowns.
