Global Refractory Sourcing and Partner Fabrication
McKeown doesn't sell from a single factory's catalog. Our global refractory sourcing connects your specification with the manufacturing partner best equipped to produce it, then holds that partner to your standards.
Source Engineering, Explained
Source engineering means we choose the supplier based on engineering, not on price alone. We match your application to the partner whose raw materials, equipment, and expertise best fit it, compare total cost across options, and manage the specification through production. You gain access to worldwide capacity without having to qualify every manufacturer yourself.
Products and Fabrications Made to Your Specifications
Beyond standard refractories, our manufacturing partners produce custom shapes, precast pieces, and engineered components built to your drawings. Every fabrication moves through McKeown's inspection program before it ships.
- Custom brick shapes and precast refractory pieces
- Copper molds, tuyeres, and cooling staves
- Coke oven apparatus and structural components
- Fabricated process equipment, inspected to engineering specifications
