Monolithics come in a variety of types including Castables, Gun Mixes, Gun Plastics, and Shotcrete, and are available in a wide range of classes.

Monolithics are unshaped refractories made from a wide range of mineral compositions with different binding systems ranging from conventional high cement to ultra-low cement and cement free. Because of their faster installation, monolithics are widely used for repair and maintenance as well as for new linings where applicable.
