Insulation & refractory supply for Antofagasta

Antofagasta is the capital of Chile’s copper mining region, supporting giant mines, smelters and electrolytic refineries inland at Calama and in the Atacama desert, and power plants at Mejillones. The dry desert climate, intense UV and large day–night temperature swings stress outdoor insulation. Refractory and castables for smelters are a major requirement.
