Calderys has announced a strategic partnership with Acetarc Limited, a UK-based expert in the design and manufacture of foundry ladles. Under this agreement, Calderys will serve as the official distributor of Acetarc ladles in Sweden, Denmark, Finland, and Norway, strengthening support for Nordic foundries with fully integrated molten metal handling solutions.
By combining Acetarc’s engineering precision with Calderys’ expertise in refractory linings and thermal management, the collaboration provides pre-lined, ready-to-use ladles. This approach ensures foundries receive complete, reliable solutions that enhance operational efficiency and safety.
Ladles play a crucial role in all melting and casting operations, serving as the primary vessel for transferring molten metal safely and efficiently. Ensuring their reliability and durability is essential for smooth foundry processes.
Through this collaboration, foundries in the Nordic region gain access to Acetarc’s expertly engineered ladles, known for their mechanical strength, precision, and long-lasting performance. These designs provide a robust foundation for handling molten metal with confidence.
Complementing this, Calderys contributes advanced refractory linings that enhance thermal efficiency, improve safety, and extend the ladles’ service life. Delivered pre-lined and ready to use, these ladles minimize installation steps, reduce downtime, and ensure consistent, high-performance operation from the very first use. By combining their capabilities, Calderys and Acetarc enable foundries in the Nordics to access ladles that are engineered, lined, and ready for immediate operation, improving performance while controlling costs.
Calderys supports foundries globally with a broad range of refractory solutions tailored to modern melting and pouring processes. Its custom-engineered ladle linings optimize heat retention, enhance safety during metal transfer, and extend operational life. The company offers a complete portfolio of materials and installation methods, including monolithic linings and prefabricated shapes, backed by extensive field expertise and technical support.
Acetarc Limited, a family-owned UK company, brings decades of experience in foundry ladle design and molten metal handling. Its products are recognized worldwide for quality and reliability, supporting safe and efficient operations in metal casting. Together, Calderys and Acetarc deliver comprehensive solutions—from ladle design and refractory lining to technical support—helping foundries maximize efficiency, reduce downtime, and maintain high safety standards.
