New Project 7

Europe’s annual Investment Casting International Conference & Exhibition is set to come back to the UK to the City of Liverpool. The theme selected for the conference is “Secure and Sustainable: Enhancing Supply Chain Resilience and Health & Safety in Investment Casting”

The investment casting industry has long been recognized for its precision, complexity, and ability to produce components that meet the highest standards of quality. However the global landscape
has changed significantly in the wake of the pandemic and ongoing geopolitical instability. These shifts have brought about unprecedented challenges in the fields of Supply Chain and Health & Safety that call for an equally unprecedented response from foundries and related industries
