Foseco is the Foundry Division of Vesuvius Group plc, a world leader in the supply of foundry consumables and solutions. Our mission is to partner with customers, focusing on improving their business performance. Together, we create new value by enabling foundries to produce castings in the most cost-effective, technically efficient, and sustainable way. Our solutions and advanced computer simulation techniques allow foundries to reduce casting defects. The conditioning of molten metal, the nature of the mold used, and the design of the way metal flows into the mold are key parameters in a foundry, determining both the quality of the finished castings and the labor, energy, and metal usage efficiency of the foundry. The comprehensive range of foundry consumables and equipment for iron, steel, and non ferrous foundries include insulating and exothermic feeding systems, filters for liquid iron, steel and aluminum, direct pour technology, solidification simulation software, non ferrous metal treatment and degassing systems, metal stream inoculation, advanced coatings, environmentally friendly binders, lining systems for ladles and furnaces as well as energy saving crucibles.
