Our own foundries
Cast parts with a casting weight between 50 g and 6 t made of approx. 40 different materials in different forming processes such as green sand, CO2 sand and furan sand, are produced in our three foundries in Portugal. Furthermore, we are also able to machine the chilled iron alloys mechanically to any desired precision.
