“Our mission at Systems Refractory Solutions is to provide steel mills with refractory maintenance services that not only meet industry standards, but set new benchmarks in operational efficiency and safety,” said Kyle Morgan, president of The Systems Group. 

The company said the new unit will be led by Josh Smitsky and Mike Williams. The goal of the new business unit is to enhance reliability, extend equipment life and reduce downtime at steel mills across the U.S. Systems aims to solve the high-temperature wear challenged faces by meltshops, furnaces, ladles, tunnel and heat furnaces, and other components in steel facilities. 

“We are excited to bring a focused, expert team to support critical refractory systems — minimizing downtime and helping our customers succeed in an increasingly competitive landscape,” continued Morgan.
