Bespoke castings since 1862

 

We work with a number of community based organisations such as councils, schools, colleges and churches. For example: we produced a full set of War Memorial Plaques cast in bronze for Hartlepool Council.  

We work with various Preservation Trusts, there are many examples of our work on HMS Warrior, at Beamish Museum and The National Railway Museum.  

The landmark Transporter Bridge, is driven on our bearings, we refurbished the bell, made the name plaque and produced limited edition artistic castings to celebrate it’s centenary. 

The Foundry produced the replica Middlesbrough Loco Plaque that hangs proudly in the players tunnel on the way to the pitch at the Riverside Stadium.  

We were also commissioned to produce the Tourist Street Signs in Newcastle and bollards in Durham City Centre.

We are acutely aware of our place in Middlesbrough’s Industrial Heritage and positively encourage engagement with the community : 

We open our doors to the Discover Middlesbrough programme, our visits are always fully subscribed and we get great feedback from the Public and the Council.

We have close ties with The Heritage Skills Initiative, we exhibit at their Skill Festivals and host the Bursary Students in the Foundry.

We work with local Schools sometimes on an educational basis but also on projects with Pupils.
