Perhaps you're employed in the petrochemical industry or find yourself at a cement plant, incinerator, or heat recovery steam generator. Regardless of the industry, one common thread emerges - the need for high-temperature refractory material and the essential role that anchors play in ensuring its stability.
If you find yourself seeking top-tier refractory anchors, and if your recent installations have been marred by recurring issues leading to increased downtime and financial strain, you're likely in search of a dependable partner who can provide rapid and consistent solutions.

However, if your interest lies in ordering commodity anchors and accessories exclusively, you may expedite to Inside Sales for a quote.
Need a totally new anchor solution? Our Engineering team will spring into action. Adapting hand welding specifications to Rapid Arc Weldable ones, or re-engineering self-designed anchors as per your blueprints—these experts master it all.
Once complete, our Insides Sales team will be in touch with you to calculate your quote.
Our dedicated Projects team will calculate the cost of Rapid Arc Welding (RAW) machines and guns, equipment, and freelancers required for your order.
Should your preference lean towards in-house installation, we facilitate training, complete with on-site supervision, ensuring seamless execution.
If you are looking for commodity anchors and/or accessories, our Inside Sales team will be in touch to advise you on the best option for your situation and will calculate your quote.
Inside Sales will also be in touch with a quote if you need specialty anchors, RAW technology and onsite installation teams.
The next step is when the order is placed, which kicks off a flurry of activity at the SILICON Headquarters in The Netherlands.
Our in-house production team work quickly and efficiently to make high-quality refractory anchors for your Turnaround, repair, or emergency.
In our warehouse, Positive Material Identification (PMI) accompany every incoming metal shipment and outgoing anchor dispatch, ensuring precision to your specifications.
Did you request Bright Annealing or Laser Marking? This is when it will happen. Did you know that refractory anchors that have undergone annealing last much longer?
Quality Control (QC) protocols woven into production incorporate approval checks prior to mass manufacturing. Before departing to the packaging phase, a final inspection guarantees adherence to your requisites.
The Packaging team ensures that your order is packed according to your wishes, verifying quantities and securing your consignment.
The next step sees the Logistics team shipping your order to you, monitoring the shipment until it reaches its final destination.
The final step sees our crew setting up the machines and guns. From here they will surprise you with high-quality and fast Rapid Arc Welding (RAW) installation!
If you prefer to weld the anchors yourself, you can rent or lease RAW equipment and technology so that your own workforce can carry out the installation. We will train your team, of course, to ensure the best results.
Chances of failure of the anchor with RAW is 0,1% as experience has shown over the past 30 years.
