Our Mission
We want to be a key supplier for leading European companies that require complex aluminum casted parts that are fully finished and with a high degree of refinement – directly to their assembly line. Therefore, our solutions are at the forefront of what is technical possible and developed through environmentally conscious practices, such as energy-efficient production and the use of recycled aluminum.
This ensures
1) Maximum performance of our customers’ products
