Manufacturing Day 2026
Manufacturing is more than machines, equipment and production lines. It’s the people, expertise, and technology that transform raw materials into solutions that keep some of the world’s most demanding industries running.
At HWI, A member of Calderys, manufacturing is at the heart of what we do.
Across our Americas footprint, HWI teams manufacture refractory products designed to withstand extreme temperatures, demanding operating conditions, and some of the world’s toughest industrial environments.
And today, HWI’s manufacturing expertise is part of something bigger.
As a member of Calderys, and the brand for the Americas region of the group, HWI is connected to a global network of refractory expertise, technologies, manufacturing capabilities, and technical resources. Together, HWI and Calderys bring customers a broader range of solutions and global knowledge – while maintaining the local manufacturing strength, technical expertise, and customer focus that have defined HWI for more than 160 years.
Throughout this Manufacturing Day campaign, we highlighted a few of the many facilities that represent the breadth of HWI’s manufacturing capabilities: Fulton Brick, Fulton Lightweight Monolithics and White Cloud, Michigan. Each facility has its own expertise, products, and processes. Together with HWI’s broader network of manufacturing sites, distribution centers, and sales locations across the Americas, they help to showcase the depth of our capabilities—and the people who make it possible to deliver HWI expertise to customers around the world.
Innovation Built America. Manufacturing Wins the Future. Together with Calderys, HWI’s expertise is now connected to opportunities around the world.
