Where desirable, it helps to implement any improved recent changes both throughout the manufacturing process in relevant departments and thus, throughout Castalloy’s products.Where need be, Castalloy’s R & D department also assists with thorough research through its own very comprehensive library and external sources on any matter that may be at hand. It also assists with Castalloy’s ongoing staff education programme by preparing technical documentations for staff members in all areas throughout the plant.

Castalloy’s R & D department also prepares documentations for customer assistance requirements where needed such as, technical advice and explanations regarding wear part design, technical specifications, wear part application and installation.
