Machinists, Laborers
Our Mission:
To provide the steel and ferrous metal industry with yield-improvement solutions through needs-based customer relationships and decades of experience.
Our History:
Walter R. Sylvester acquired Universal Refractories, Inc. in 1983, and since the mid-1990’s the Sylvester family has had sole ownership of the company. One of the benefits of being a family-owned manufacturing company is our organization’s unique ability to operate on a long-term strategic focus, mitigating knee-jerk reactions to volatile markets.
Full-Time Employee Benefits:
• Competitive pay starting at $14 and quickly advancing over the first 18 months of employment.
• Medical, vision and dental coverage
• Competitive 401k plan and company match
• 100% employer paid life insurance and short-term disability insurance
• Paid vacation
• 11 paid company Holidays
Universal Refractories, Inc. offers consistent work of 40+ hours a week.
