Intermediary for the supply of Forging and Casting

Monday May 23, 2022

Companies sometimes wonder: “Can't our purchasing department simply purchase these supplies from abroad itself, without the involvement of an intermediary, intermediary or commercial agent, who must ultimately also have his commission?” Formaco Forgings & Castings answers that question below and is a supplier of specialist casting and forging for shipbuilding, offshore, machine construction, pump manufacturing, lifting products and related industries.

“What matters is to remove a lot of worry and risk for you as a customer; in our case, when it comes to the international purchase of cast or forged products that can involve a high purchasing risk, for example if they involve complex machining operations that have to be performed successively by different machines and companies”. If something goes wrong in this entire chain, it is often unclear who will take responsibility for this”.

Formaco as an intermediary and conductor

“We as Formaco know our suppliers through many years of collaboration and know exactly which manufacturers are most suitable for a particular product or processing. We 'direct', as it were, between the various companies that have to carry out the process steps, and ensure that everything is carried out on time and according to the agreed specifications during the manufacturing process. Formaco takes the risk completely out of the buyer's hands, who finally, due to the large purchasing package that he often has, has something else to do than constantly having to keep a finger on the pulse of the various international producers of his multiple products. edit product(s)”.

Formaco as a single point of contact

“The great advantage of Formaco is that the customer only has one point of contact. Due to the great expertise, the purchaser can assume that the production and processing of his purchased product(s) are in good hands, and that the specifications and agreed delivery times are met”.

Formaco is Western European quality

“Thanks to many years of cooperation with our producers, we know exactly what our specializations are. All our manufacturers work at a Western European quality level, which has been built up over the years of cooperation with us. We also know the people, which makes efficient communication possible, which obviously benefits the final result. In any case, it is clear to our Forgings & Castings sector: Formaco 'unburdens', so that the entire manufacturing process is streamlined. We prove that we are absolute added value.”
