Sirtec opens a new factory in Tunisia

A new Sirtec refractory roller production line with a production capacity of around 500,000 rollers/year began production in August in the industrial area of Tunis.

The factory is equipped with state-of-the-art machinery allowing for extremely rapid and flexible firing cycles. The introduction of new high-performance raw materials into the mix has brought considerable benefits for the entire range of Sirtec rollers (the evolution of Sirma products, formerly the industry leader) in terms of the ability to meet the production needs of the market and high performance of products.

The architect of this new industrial venture and Sirtec's key partner is Gabriele Bissoli, a well-known entrepreneur with many years of experience in the ceramic industry. Sirtec exports its rollers worldwide through an extensive, well-established technical/commercial organisation present in all key geographical areas.
