2021: Durrans-Coatings in Thailand – Production will start soon

In June 2019 the James Durrans Group is pleased to announce the signing of a licensing agreement with Pine-Pacific Corporation Ltd. in Thailand. Pine-Pacific have built a new coating plant in Bangkok, which will enable refractory coating development to adapt and meet the constantly everchanging requirements of the foundry industry.

2020: Feasibility programme for new manufacturing site

2019: Durrans at GIFA 2019

After 5 successful „trade days“ the James Durrans Group could draw another positive balance. Through the present professional staff and many employees from all over the world, the Group was able to increase the number of visitors further compared to 2015.

Of particular note is the steadily growing worldwide expansion of Durrans. Through the cooperation with SASOL, one of the world’s largest energy groups and specialist in the liquefaction of hard coal, and the construction of a shaft kiln calcination plant in Sasolburg, South Africa, we’ve expanded our product portfolio with Procarb SG for the benefit of our customers.

Further, the Group is pleased to announce the signing of a licencing agreement between James Durrans and Sons Ltd and Pine Pacific Corporation, Thailand.

With the growing importance of the Thai foundry industry and with the intention to provide the highest level of focused service to the local foundries needs, Mr Ithinai and his team at Pine took the view that a purpose-built foundry coating production facility would be their next logical step in both expanding their service based business and complementing current production. It is envisaged that the facility will provide a fast route for new developments and adaptions to meet the ever-changing needs with the foundry community.

Finally, the exhibition was a full success for the James Durrans Group and the team is already looking forward to the next Gifa, most likely in 2023. We want to thank all of those who supported our appearance with logistics and other help!

2018: Große Gießereitechnische Tagung 2018, April 26 – 27, 2018 in Salzburg / Österreich

Die Tagung wurde von mehr als 800 Teilnehmern unterschiedlicher Branchen besucht und war somit für alle ein voller Erfolg. Es war uns auch eine Freude, viele unserer

2018: Formstoff-Forum 2018 in Aachen

Am 7. und 8. März fand das 2. Formstoff-Forum 2018 statt, Tagungsort war dieses Mal die RWTH Aachen. Der Erfolg des im Jahr 2016 veranstalteten 1. Formstoff-Forums als
Nachfolger der bekannten Duisburger Formstofftage gab dem Konzept recht, dass eine eigenständige wissenschaftliche Tagung zum Themenkreis Formstoffe und Formver-
fahren sehr wichtig für unsere Branche ist. Die zweite Auflage des neuen Formstoff-Forums verließ nun erstmalig die bekannte Tagungsstätte in Duisburg, um zukünftig
zwischen den deutschen Hochschulstandorten zu wechseln. Fast 500 Teilnehmer folgten der Einladung der Veranstalter nach Aachen, um eine Fülle von Vorträgen
zu den Themen bentonitgebundene Formstoffe, Simulation und 3D-Druck oder Formgrundstoffe, anorganische Binder und organische Bindersysteme, Entkernverhalten
oder Regenerierung zu hören. In Teil 1 derÜbersicht werden zunächst die Kurzfassungen der Vorträge zu den Schwerpunkten bentonitgebundene Formstoffe und anorganische

Binder vorgestellt. (Quelle: www.giesserei-praxis.de/fachzeitschrift/archiv/artikel/2018/gp-4-2018/23075-2-formstoff-forum-2018-in-aachen/).
