Copper has a wide range of applications, from electrical wiring to musical instruments. Allied supports a multitude of copper metal production processes with an extensive refractory selection. We specialize in copper shaft furnace systems and induction furnaces melting copper and copper alloys, providing products that can improve efficiency, performance and equipment life.
Copper Metals
With its distinct color and useful properties, copper – and its various alloys – is a popular, versatile metal.
Primary & Secondary
A starting point in copper production in which the metal is refined into a useful form. Allied provides products for anode furnaces, specifically casting spoons.
