The IFB REFRACTORIES team is honoured to receive the TotalEnergies trophy, rewarding IFB historical know-how and development perspectives.

The ceremony took place during the last Réseau Entreprendre Loire Vallée awards ceremony at Château de Chenonceau.

Special thanks to Annick Noble from TotalEnergies and the Réseau Entreprendre Loire Vallée team for this outstanding evening!

 

For over 100 years, IFB Refractories has stood tall, crafting quality and performant refractory products that have shaped industrial projects worldwide. Our plant in Buzançais carries a long history. But our traditions are not just about the past; it continues to inspire us today in our commitments to a more sustainable and energy-efficient manufacturing.

As an example of these traditions we often mention the water savings management. To compensate for limited water resources, raw materials were and are still stored outside for weeks to capture as much rainwater as possible, reducing the use of piped water.

Our commitment to quality, performant and sustainable products help us to remain at the forefront of our industry. Join us in celebrating the rich heritage of IFB Refractories!
