SEFPRO University

Sharing, learning, growing all together. Training is key for people, our expertise is available for you.

Take part in SEFPRO University, a unique experience to better understand refractory materials over a program developed specifically for glassmakers. Extend your knowledge to understand manufacturing processes, performance studies, material selection, diagnosis and more. Go deeper by working on real life case studies.

You will learn more about refractory manufacturing processes and product properties and thus better manage the use of refractory materials in your glass furnace. It will help you optimize furnace life management, glass quality, environmental and energy performance. It is also a great occasion to share knowledge, work on real case studies, with applications of troubleshooting and diagnosis.

We wish to transmit our expertise regarding refractory behavior by adapting and customizing our trainings entirely to your practical needs, with:
• technical and scientific content only
• the presence of trainers who are experts in their fields
• a flexible organization
• technical learning always linked with practical examples
• trained people in direct contact with our global experts in case of further questions

• fused cast refractory manufacturing process and product properties
• sintered products and expendables for the glass industry
• industrial behavior of refractory materials in glass furnaces
• refractory application tests for the glass industry
• heat exchange and refractory choice in glass furnace regenerators
• unshaped product properties and application
• refractories for insulation glass
• refractories for reinforcement glass
• refractories for alkali borosilicate glasses
• glass defect analysis
