Yesterday's acquisition of Refrattari Trezzi by MIRECO – a joint venture between RHI Magnesita and Horn & Co. Group – has bolstered the leading European recycling platform's commitment to advancing the circular economy within European refractories.
The acquisition means that a strategic production facility has been added to MIRECO's existing plant network. The strengthened presence in Italy, it is claimed, will enable an increased supply of high-value secondary raw materials and customized services to extend our full-line services portfolio for the customers.
“The union of MIRECO and Refrattari Trezzi is a further commitment to our sustainability strategy”, said Constantin Beelitz, regional president of RHI Magnesita Europe, CIS & Türkiye. “By increasing the use of secondary raw material such as stones or mixes throughout the refractory industry, we can significantly reduce CO2 emissions not only within our industry, but also for our customers.”
“Today marks another milestone in the longstanding relationship between Refrattari Trezzi and MIRECO. By joining forces and leveraging our combined know-how, we will enhance our ability to offer sustainable value to our customers”, says Pietro Trezzi, managing director of Refrattari Trezzi.
Refrattari Trezzi is a family-owned company with more than 60 years of experience in refractory recycling and a long-standing relationship with MIRECO and RHI Magnesita. Based in the heart of Italy’s industrial region in proximity to Milan, the company is a well-established and trusted partner to the Italian steel industry, opening up many possibilities for the combined business to provide further value to the Italian market. The current management, Pietro and Giacomo Trezzi, will both join MIRECO to continue managing and integrating the plant.
“With Refrattari Trezzi, we have been able to acquire a specialist with many years of experience in its segment and a long-standing company tradition. We clearly see a growing interest and demand from our customers for sustainable products and solutions. We have listened and are now well positioned to serve our Italian customers with an extended local-for-local product portfolio and services.” says Nenad Tanasic, managing director of MIRECO.
