OEM & tooling

Your design, our furnace — and the tooling stays on your account

Most of the fear in placing an OEM order in Asia is about what happens to your pattern afterwards. We write our answer down: a private pattern is cast for you and for nobody else, it is kept on our shelf between your orders, and it is returned or destroyed if you ask.

Who owns a private pattern
You doTooling made to your drawing is yours. It is not used for another buyer, in your market or any other.
Where it is kept
On our shelf, indexed to your accountSo a repeat order comes off the same pattern and the fifth container matches the first.
Return or destruction
On written requestWe photograph the pattern before returning or destroying it and send you the photograph.
Your mark
Cast into the base, not stamped afterSend vector artwork. A cast mark cannot be polished off in transit.
Exclusivity of a catalogue pattern
Discussed case by caseOur own catalogue patterns stay ours unless we agree a territory in writing.
Samples
Cast to drawing before productionSample cost is credited against the first production order.

The route from a drawing to a container

Seven steps, and what each one needs from you

  1. What you send

    A drawing, a 3D file, photographs from several angles, or the physical piece. Give the overall height you want and say which dimension is the one that must not move.

  2. Feasibility & quotation

    Within two working days we say whether it can be cast as drawn, what we would change and why, and quote the tooling and the unit price at your quantities.

  3. Pattern making

    Wooden or resin pattern, or a 3D print taken from your file. Shrinkage, draft and feeding are added here — this is the step that decides whether the casting fills.

  4. Sample casting

    One piece cast and finished. Photographs from six angles, with a tape in frame, before it is shipped to you for approval.

  5. Approval in writing

    You sign off the sample, the finish and the mark. Anything you want changed is changed on the pattern, not argued about later.

  6. Production

    21–30 days of casting for a normal order, plus finishing. Photographs at the fettling and patina stages so colour is agreed before packing.

  7. Inspection & packing

    Dimensions, weight and colour checked against the approved sample, photographed, then foam, carton and crate. Your carton and insert card if you supply them.

What we are good at, and what we are not

Read this before you send a drawing

Suits us

Cast bronze with relief and character

Censers, statues, plaques, lettering, vessels, hardware and fittings — work where the pattern carries detail and a human hand finishes it. Sand casting for volume, lost wax where the undercuts need it.

Does not suit us

Machined tolerances and mass plastics

If your part needs ±0.1 mm, a CNC shop should make it, not a village foundry. We will tell you that at the quotation stage rather than take the order and disappoint you.

Ask first

Very large single pieces

Monumental work is possible but changes the crating, the port handling and the price. Send the height and the site before you plan a budget around it.

Ask first

Declarations for regulated markets

Lead-content or material declarations: tell us what your market demands at the enquiry stage and we will say plainly what we can support in writing, and what we cannot.

Copying other people's work

We will cast your design, your customer's design, or a traditional pattern. We will not copy a piece that is plainly another company's protected design and put your mark on it — if that is the brief, say so early and we will decline early.
