SSRC Expands International Offer to Glass Manufacturers
After attending Glasstec and listening to feedback from customers and partners, Special Shapes Refractory Company (SSRC) is responding by expanding its international presence to offer consistent pricing, rapid turnaround, and innovative solutions to glass manufacturers in Europe, South America, Mexico, Central America and beyond.
To meet the demand for these services, SSRC has restructured the Sales Team and promoted Andrew Pea to the role of Director of International Sales and Business Development. "SSRC will be successful in our efforts due to the stable fuel prices in the United States, nimbleness of the company, competitiveness of the USD versus other currencies, and increased demand within the glass industry," said Mr Pea.
SSRC has created a partnership with REFMON to provide more cohesive refractory solutions for the glass market. REFMON is dedicated to producing feeder-expendables and fulfil customised demands. They have provided solutions to over 50 countries and are dedicated to produce wear-protection linings to batch-houses, cullet transports and gob chutes.
The company has also expanded the international team and Trusted Partners with local sales agents in Mexico/Central America with ONTAL and in South America with Fábio Bernardo. These partnerships will provide glassmakers with local stock supplies, quicker response time, and more solutions for refractories.
