The FOREVA foundry is an integral part of REVA SA Simeria - a company with an extensive tradition for conducting maintenance works for freight wagons, repairing and manufacturing subassemblies and spare parts for rolling stock.

Semi-finished cast products from gray and light alloy cast iron, with the weight between 1 kg - 4000 kg, designed for:

• Spare parts for rolling stock: brake shoes for freight wagons and locomotives;
• Spare parts for general industrial use: casings for electric engines or inverters, lids, belt pulleys, brake washers, bushings, piston bodies, counterweights, cinder collectors - slag vats, grilles and reinforcements for various types of heating ovens, etc;
• Cast parts for utility use: bench legs, ornamental poles, grilles for trees, etc;

Semi-finished cast products from carbon and light alloy steel, with the weight between 1 kg - 4000 kg, designed for:

• spare parts for general industrial use: bearing bodies, rolling wheels, lids, cable rolls, drums, half-couplings, brake shoes, etc.
  
  The cast parts are made both with the customer’s foundry molds and with our own foundry molds constructed by agreed suppliers
