BUSINESS DESCRIPTION
In fine art investment casting a sacrificial wax object is reproduced in metal by first investing it with a covering or ceramic and then burning out the wax to leave a perfect cavity in refractory material. Molten metal is then poured into the cavity and allowed to cool and solidify, reproducing the fine details of the original wax pattern.
Investment (or lost wax) casting is an ancient process. The story of lost wax metalworking is the story of Bronze Age technological innovation. In the modern world, investment casting still has a highly active place in arts, jewelry making and industrial applications.
