Unlike many manufacturers who are making promises of future products, GreenAlloys are available now and have an impressive track record. There are millions of pounds of low-lead and no-lead alloys in service today that are produced by Concast, all with very positive customer feedback.

Concast has been the only foundry in the nation since 1993 licensed to produce the Federalloy series of lead-free copper alloys - the company's first venture in marketing GreenAlloys. Started in 1891, the company's experienced and knowledgeable team is composed of some of the most skilled craftsmen working today - each being a specialist dedicated to the task of producing superior products for a diverse customer base. They continually refine the process and are always pushing toward greater improvements.

Concast produces a full range of regulatory-compliant GreenAlloys that have extremely low lead content, often as low as 0.05%. Lead in water-handling fixtures, especially those made of brass, can leach into drinking water in significant levels, posing a health hazard. GreenAlloys are free of the elements that impact health and the environment and still perform in the manner for which they were intended. At Concast, we manufacture a wide selection of these copper alloys in which we replace lead with other elements while still offering exceptional lubricity, tightness, wear, strength, hardness and machinability.

The green movement is happening in nearly every industry - it's a long-term trend. Progressive companies know that consumers are demanding eco-friendly products. Even state governments are taking action. One state, with others expected to follow, has already passed a law declaring that by 2010, no valve or fixture in the state can contain more than 0.25% percent lead. By choosing Concast's regulatory-compliant, lead-free copper alloys, your company will be ahead of the curve and will be recognized in doing its part in caring for the environment.

Within GreenAlloys, lead is replaced by other elements, but the product still offers exceptional lubricity, tightness, wear, strength, hardness and machinability. The quality of the alloys remains exceptional while the worries surrounding the use of lead disappear. Concast remains ahead of the curve with GreenAlloys. In fact, we've been producing environmentally friendly products for the past fifteen years, all with far-reaching applications.

GreenAlloys meet the high standards required to receive certification from Scientific Certification Systems. Founded in 1984, SCS is a leading third-party provider of certification, auditing and testing services, and standards. Their goal is to recognize the highest levels of performance in food safety and quality, environmental protection and social responsibility in the private and public sectors, and to stimulate continuous improvement in sustainable development.

Concast has been producing continuous cast products since 1960. We've anticipated market needs and have stayed ahead of the curve for the past fifteen years by focusing production on our lead-free, environmentally friendly products known as GreenAlloys. Since 1993, we have remained the only foundry in the nation licensed to produce the Federalloy series of lead-free copper alloys. At Concast, we recognize that the green movement is here to stay.

Concast manufactures a wide selection of alloys, in which we replace lead with other elements while still offering exceptional lubricity, tightness, wear, strength, hardness and machinability.
