Manufacturing program

Manufacture of decorative, urban and garden iron castings

Ornamental iron castings form the substantial part of the total production. They are different stairs railings (up to 150 own designs), fencing elements, castings for garden and street furniture, castings for illumination masts, trash containers, pillars, guard posts, peaks for fences, illumination supporting brackets, firm’s logotypes, grates protecting trees, mail boxes, pedestals for coffeehouse tables, fountains etc.

In co-operation with construction companies we are participating in reconstructions of historical buildings and premises. Our castings can be found e.g. in the Hluboká castle, the Mariánská Týnice castle, on Šilingr square and in the Beseda house in Brno, in Austrian towns Langenlois, Krems, but also in New York in the building of the Czech National House. We are able to ensure the manufacture of replicas of historical iron castings according to original patterns, drawings or photographs.
