About us

Engineering team and foundry experience, together

Impro Metallurgy was founded by bringing together an engineering team with years of experience in copper and copper alloy casting, from production to sales, and a production team with hands-on foundry expertise.

Foundation and experience

Founded in 2009, Impro Metallurgy was established by engineers who had worked in many positions from production to sales in copper casting, together with an experienced foundry team.

Technology and capacity

Infrastructure to cast copper, copper alloys and all non-ferrous materials as single pieces up to 2,000 kg.

Testing and reporting

Every part is tested destructively or non-destructively to its specification; tests not available in-house are carried out with accredited bodies and reported.

Quality and cost advantage

We control quality at every stage of production while making cost advantage for our customers a primary goal.

Technical support

Beyond manufacturing to standards, we provide technical support based on the operating conditions of each part.

Sector solutions

We serve iron and steel, valve and pump, shipbuilding and every sector that needs special-alloy components.
