Company Philosophy

The best way to win and sustain business is to build strong partnerships. Forging those relationships means investing time and learning to understand our customers. By listening very carefully to their needs and concerns we can focus on what we have to do to ensure they come back to us.

Quality

Soundness, consistency and finish matter. A casting invariably forms the basic raw material for a machined and finished component. A casting flaw, especially one discovered late on, can make a casting a very expensive reject. Our reject rates are minimal because we set one standard of excellence for every casting.

Value For Money

No-one chooses to buy an over-priced casting. Unfortunately, too many opt for a cheap casting and suffer the consequences of poor quality and wasted costs down the line. Our emphasis is on giving outstanding value for money.

Delivery

The majority of our customers operate computer based manufacturing systems. For those systems to run smoothly deliveries must be on time. Late, early or partial deliveries cause delays and wastage. We make a commitment to deliver and stick to it.

Service

When requirements change or technical issues arise our customers want support. Our management is hands-on every day and always available to help our customers out.

‘My Machine shop manager has asked if we’ve splashed out on new tooling because he cannot understand the sudden improvement in quality. I told him we are using a new foundry (Draycast)’
