Refractory materials and thermal protection for high-temperature industrial processes
Calderys manufactures refractory products and thermal-protection solutions for steel, cement, and energy industries across 50 plants on five continents. The tech stack reveals a traditional industrial operations model—SAP ERP, Oracle Cloud, MES/WMS, and CAD tools dominate—paired with emerging analytics (Power BI, Databricks). Active projects center on Oracle Cloud migration, IFRS 16 asset accounting automation, and continuous improvement, suggesting the company is modernizing legacy operations while addressing compliance and financial reporting gaps. Hiring is broad across manufacturing and engineering, consistent with a multi-site global footprint.
