Scheduled maintenance shutdowns
Plan fast and efficient maintenance of your refractory equipment to ensure the safety of your workers and the continuation of your operations. In collaboration with the other trades involved, we'll plan a complete shutdown of your equipment to ensure that you can quickly resume production. Rest assured that our experts will always meet your deadlines: with crews working night and day, as necessary, to ensure that your maintenance work is completed on schedule.
Pre-repair inspection
All repairs must be preceded by a detailed inspection by our specialists. We examine the interior of your equipment or industrial furnace to assess the repairs that need to be carried out, by hammering the walls or detecting areas of excessive heat with thermal imaging cameras. We can then prioritize repairs over a pre-determined period of time.
Emergency repairs
When urgent repairs or maintenance is needed, in the case of damaged lining in an industrial boiler, a rotary kiln compromised by a hot spot or a leaking tank, our team is available on call 24/7 to help. Atwill-Morin’s experts act quickly because, if left undiagnosed, these issues can result in extensive damage and extended down time.
Industrial refractory manufacturing and installation
Entrust us with the complete fabrication of your refractory kiln or corrosion resistant equipment for a sturdy result that will stand up to any industrial use. Depending on your requirements, we can install refractory or anti-corrosion bricks to build your industrial furnace, or apply refractory concrete coatings or membranes to your specialized equipment.
Annual planning and budgets
Over the course of a few weeks, months or years, we can plan and budget for the maintenance and repair of your refractory equipment. With our multi-skilled, qualified staff, we have the expertise to forecast the work that will be required. Let us keep your operation safe!
Structural reinforcement and concrete repairs
Rely on our refractory experts to reinforce the structure of your equipment with carbon fiber and correct weaknesses before breakage or cracks threaten the safety of your workers or the productivity of your business. Reinforcing structures with CFRP increases their load-bearing capacity and resistance to damage. Carbon fiber can be applied to any equipment made of refractory or corrosion-resistant materials.

FAQ for your refractory and corrosion-resistant equipment
What are the main tools and equipment used in refractory manufacturing and maintenance?
At Atwill Morin, we use state-of-the-art equipment: we use thermal and infrared cameras to detect areas that are generating too much heat. To maintain and repair concrete, we use Gunite or shotcrete pumps, as well as mortar mixers. Our inventory also includes radial brick and block saws, and remote-controlled hydraulic hammers (Brokk).
Tips for choosing the right supplier for refractory installation and repair
The workforce has to be experienced in health and safety, as well as in large-scale projects. Teams must be properly trained, as is the case at Atwill Morin, by following training programs and keeping up to date with the latest technologies in refractories and anti-corrosion equipment.
What specific materials are used to reinforce refractories?
We use refractory bricks or alumina shotcrete (Gunite) for heat and fire resistance, and ceramic-like anti-corrosion bricks for equipment that needs to resist corrosion. In terms of refractory bricks, we use a variety such as ultra-dense zircon, burnt magnesia, dense low-porosity and fireclay.
How can we bring your project to life?
