Purchasing of
foundry metals
Purchasing of foundry metals is a fully integrated part of our value proposition – ensuring that the right material is available, on time, and engineered for efficient machining.
Secure sourcing of cast iron components – integrated with machining expertise
For OEMs and industrial manufacturers, reliable access to high-quality cast iron is critical to performance, cost control, and delivery precision. At KOCKUMS MASKIN, Purchasing of foundry metals is a fully integrated part of our value proposition – ensuring that the right material is available, on time, and engineered for efficient machining.
As part of the BIRN Group, we combine industrial buying power with deep technical insight. This allows us to act as a competent cast iron component sourcing partner, not just a purchaser of raw castings.
One sourcing partner – reduced risk and higher predictability
Managing suppliers, quality, and logistics across multiple foundries can be complex and resource-intensive. KOCKUMS MASKIN simplifies this process by taking full responsibility for cast iron casting sourcing within Europe.
Through long-term collaboration with selected European foundries – including BIRN – we operate as a reliable cast iron casting supplier for customers who value stability and traceability in their supply chain.
As a customer you reduce supplier interfaces, mitigate risk, and gain a single point of responsibility from raw casting to finished, machined component.
Sourcing matched to machining requirements
Cast iron sourcing is not only about availability. It is about selecting materials that perform optimally in downstream machining and final application.
Our engineers work closely with foundries to ensure that each casting is specified for its functional and production requirements, whether you are sourcing ductile iron castings for strength and fatigue resistance or sourcing grey iron castings for damping properties and machinability.
Quality assurance built into the supply chain
Quality starts long before the first machining operation. Our sourcing process includes defined quality standards, documented material specifications, and systematic follow-up with foundry partners.
This makes KOCKUMS MASKIN a dependable cast iron components supplier for customers who require consistent metallurgy, dimensional stability, and full documentation.
Cost-efficient and reliable European logistics
By sourcing cast iron components within Europe, we ensure short lead times, reliable logistics, and reduced exposure to global supply chain disruptions. Our structured supplier network supports competitive pricing without compromising on quality or sustainability.
