Precision and sophistication 

We are specialists in aluminium smelting and artistic bronze, in lost wax and chemical grinding techniques. In our foundry, we combine traditional craftsmanship with modern casting techniques, to achieve exceptional results. We carry out precise and sophisticated casting processes, to create unique and beautiful pieces.

We understand that every piece we deal with is unique and special, for this reason, we offer a personalised, detailed service, guaranteeing the satisfaction of our customers. With our experience and dedication, we strive to turn the ideas and visions of our customers into reality.

Pit techniques

Lost-wax casting

It is the artistic technique par excellence of Mediterranean culture in metal casting.

The name comes from the use of wax as an ephemeral model although this method has now been adapted to new materials, such as plastics, materials used in 3D printers, spams, polyurethanes, etc.

The technique of lost wax is appreciated for its ability to capture the beauty, complexity, and intricate detail of metal parts.

Ceramic peel

In the technique of lost wax, we also offer the ceramic peel.

Ceramic peel is a technique used to create cast for metal parts. It is used for casting pieces that have very precise details.

It is the bath coating of the model that will end up being the metal container at the time of the casting and from which metal reproduction will be extracted. It is the technique used in the casting process, for the creation of lost wax moulds. It consists of making rigid molds from using resistant ceramic materials.

The process of the ceramic lock involves the creation of a rigid mold from the coating of layers of ceramic material, around a wax model. This mold is used for the casting of metal pieces, to obtain the desired shape.

We've tried different materials until we find one that meets our technical requirements, maximum definition and is environmentally friendly.

Chemical molding

It is an innovative manufacturing process based on the use of chemical reactions to create and form pieces in a variety of materials. Agglutinating silica sand and resins are used to achieve a rigid casing where liquid metal is poured.

It is efficient and versatile, and also allows for the creation of pieces in diversity of materials.

A significant advantage of chemical grinding is its ability to reuse and recycle that sand that has been used in the process. Once the piece is extracted, the sand is crushed and recycled to remove impurities. This helps to minimise waste generation.
