Pablo Valenzuela Y.

PRESIDENT UNITECR 2017

Dear Colleagues. The Organizing Committee of UNITECR 2017 has been enthusiastically working for more than a year to provide the best congress for refractory specialists from around the world, not only in the technical program but also in the social side of the meeting. As you may know, the first UNITECR (Unified International Technical Conference on Refractories) took place in the United States and since then UNITECR has taken place every two years with the venue rotating between North America, Europe, Japan and Latin America.
