In the year 1986 we began in Moenchengladbach (Germany) the production of aluminium silica wool and in 1989 to round out the selection of refractory products up to 1800 degree Celsius application temperature we began producing aluminium oxide wool. An expansion of the company with the Budapest (Hungary) and Meissen (Germany) locations followed upon opening of the eastern countries. Starting in the year 1999, we were able to expand our product range to include insulating bricks with the takeover of Magindag Isotech GmbH in Bennewitz (Germany) . Together with our customers, we solve the most difficult technical problems, supported by the knowledge of some of the most important universities and research centres in Austria, Germany and the USA. We employ the extensive know-how gained in this process for further development of our products and the technical solutions we offer in furnace construction, thermal recycling in diverse areas of industrial and, increasingly, in non-refractory applications. We adapt our production systems accordingly and ensure our quality system through ISO 9001 (2000) .
