Our products cover a range of innovative casthouse solutions.

Optifine 5:1 125

Our premium grain refiner with enhanced nucleation offers 125% relative efficiency and means casthouses need 85% less product than standard grain refiners.

Optifine 5:1 100

Our mid-range grain refiner provides enhanced growth restriction and offers 100% relative efficiency and means casthouses need 70% less product than standard grain refiners.

Optifine 3:1 100

Our original top-selling grain refiner offers 100% relative efficiency and means casthouses need 70% less product.

Opticast

Opticast enables casthouses to determine the precise amount of grain refiner they need to achieve optimum refinement, no more guesswork.

Optifeeder

Since Optifine has been proven to be effective at much lower addition rates than conventional TiBAl rod there is a need for a Rod Feeding Machine which will deliver Optifine rod at very slow speeds and at a much greater accuracy than conventional rod feeding machines.

Optifilter

A rod feeding Machine which will deliver Optifine rod at very slow speeds and at a much greater accuracy than conventional rod feeding machines.

Reduce your carbon footprint

Aluminium can, technically, be recycled forever, but making products that do not meet the discerning criteria of today’s manufacturing will and does result in significant waste and production processes contribute to excess carbon emissions.

If the world was to adopt Optifine, fluoride by products and emissions would be reduced by two thirds. It would mean less energy as less refiner needs to be added to the melt, which also means less coil changes and transportation around the casthouse and lower warehouse inventory. Optifine 5:1 125 is also made using low carbon aluminium.
