Chemical-Resistant Precast Shapes for Silicate & Glass Melting Environments
Silicate glass and mineral fibre melting furnaces operate under corrosive, high-temperature conditions with chemically aggressive melts. Sharadaa addresses these conditions with premium Low Cement Castable Precast Shapes (VEL 100) offering superior hot strength and chemical resistance.
The silicate and glass processing industries operate high-temperature melting furnaces that require refractory materials capable of resisting chemical corrosion and thermal stress. Sharadaa Ceramics provides durable refractory solutions designed for glass and silicate furnace applications.
VEL 100 precast refractory shapes offer excellent resistance to glass corrosion and maintain structural stability at elevated temperatures. These materials are engineered to withstand continuous furnace operation while minimizing wear and degradation. By implementing Sharadaa refractory solutions, silicate manufacturers benefit from longer furnace lining life, improved operational efficiency, and consistent product quality, ensuring reliable performance in glass and silicate processing plants.

Case Studies
Product introduction was carried out in a 15 Mt ladle which undergoes frequent pouring and casting.
It completed 20 ladles of circulation as compared to single ladle usage with bottom pouring sleeves
It has also been developed for the higher capacity 30 Mt ladle and is under circulation.
