02 October 2015 - We Are Recruiting & Seeking To Appoint Two New Members To Our Team

First of all we would like to give thanks to all the hard work John Oakley has done over the last 26 years as our Production Manager. John has decided to slow down and take more time out of the business to focus on relaxing. We are pleased to say that he will be remaining with the company as Product Development Manager going forward. That does however leave some shoes to fill.

We are excited to announce that Trent Refractories are seeking to appoint two new members to our team. We are a small to medium sized company who manufacture bagged materials and precast refractory products in-house at our site in Scunthorpe.

We are a family run business and our 26 year history is important to us and our customers. We are honest, friendly and approachable and treat people how we like to be treated ourselves. Our aim is to be a leader in the refractory industry, providing an extensive product range and responsive service to our customers, primarily in the steel and foundry industries.
