WB White Foundry - cast aluminium

As well as the ability to manufacture cast iron products, WB White Foundry can manufacture a wide variety of products in all grades of aluminium, bronze, zinc-alloys, copper based alloys and gunmetal.

Aluminium (aluminum) castings are not just lighter, on average 65% lighter than iron, but also offer the capability of having a finer finish. WB White Foundry can gravity die cast aluminium for jobs where clean and intricate details or large batches are required, or both.

Aluminium castings are often a more practical solution than iron, particularly where weight is likely to be an issue. Aluminium is often used for cast finials, removable street furniture castings and ancillary products.

Other alloy and aluminium casting materials offer aesthetic as well as practical appeal. Being non ferrous, these castings will not rust and materials such as gunmetal and aluminium bronze can offer a great visual appeal for architectural castings, especially if left to patina and age naturally.
