“We were carrying out emergency repairs on an oven for a prestigious biscuit manufacturer and needed 86 skid bars urgently. The people at Boro were amazing! They made the pattern, cast the skid bars and we had them within 14 days. Absolutely incredible! I would highly recommend Boro Foundry to anyone requiring cast iron work.”
