Silicate binders for construction and refractory materials

Silicate binders are eco-compatible, inorganic and offer high performance, even at high temperatures when they remain stable and do not produce harmful vapours or gases. 

In response to growing demand for functional silicates, Blagden has linked up with Woellner to supply their range to our customers. Woellner is an acknowledged specialist producer with more than 120 years of experience in silicate production.
