Most refractory materials can be recycled — saving both costs and carbon emissions.
How to Recycle Refractory Materials Efficiently
High-temperature industrial processes generate a significant amount of used refractory materials. The good news? Most of them can be recycled — and reused as raw materials for new products.
At Betker, we support our customers in circular economy efforts by offering expert guidance for implementing an effective recycling process. Recycling is not only a responsible environmental choice, but it can also be economically beneficial.
How does the recycling process work?
Betker’s experts guide the customer through the entire process:
- Unloading and collection of used materials
- Sorting and screening
- Crushing, drying, and reclassification
- Reintroduction into production as raw material for new products
Currently, around 25 % of Betker’s raw materials are recycled, and we offer over 20 products that include recycled content — and the work continues.
