Marble dry Casting
Our dry Carrara marble casting method was developed in house creating our unique binder which allows us to create sculptures with 95%+ natural Italian carrara marble. This type of marble dry casting is authentic to the eye and touch, and can be highly polished. Carrara marble dry casting is ultraviolet light resistant and is the only white cast material in the world that can offer this.

Polyester Resin Casting
Polyester resin casting is ideal for creating special effects. Polyester resin is versatile and can be tinted both transparent and opaque using special colour pigments. We use this method of resin casting for producing works of art, special effects, large bulk casting, reproduction of stone, marble and precious stones, resin cast metals, and the reproduction of glass.

Polyurethane Resin Casting
We mainly use Polyurethane resin casting for rapid prototyping, engineering components, jigs, fixture components, water clear casting, thick pore clear casting, highly filled systems, and metal powders. This casting service is ideal for making very thin section parts, giving high strength values, structural stability, high wear and scratch resistance, and low shrinkage, across any size castings.

Polyurethane Foams Casting
we have a vast amount of experience and knowledge in casting Polyurethane foam resin systems. These materials come in varying densities and are mainly used by us for the exact reproduction of wood carvings, and finished by our art department in any wood finish, from limed oak, dark oak, antique pine and many more. These resin systems are also used to centre fill large castings where weight needs to be removed from the final project.
Other Casting Services
All of our Resin Casting Services are done in house, with the exception of foundry pouring of metals. We can produce one off casts to large production runs in a variety of materials. We also have a vast experience in decorative finishing with colour casting, textured surfaces, antiquing, metallising, marbling, venetian plaster, and Italian glazes.
