Roslagsgjuteriet

The Company

Business concept

Our business concept is to market and manufacture advanced iron goods for Swedish and foreign customers. Within the framework of a single organisation we supply knowledge, inventiveness, experience and technical equipment, which runs all the way from the idea stage via patternequipment and casting to delivering a completely finished article. Through rational, quality-oriented manufacturing, all in accordance with EN 9001:2015, we offer products in most grey, spheroidal and special qualities, with a high level of security of supply adapted to the customer’s requirements.

 

Unique knowledge and modern production technics

Roslagsgjuteriet has a long tradition of casting and our roots extend right back to the 1860s. Over the years the company has developed into a modern foundry where we combine unique craftsmanship with the latest production technics. Today we can offer highly flexible production of both machine- and hand-moulded iron castings. It enables us to process both short and long runs and we can rapidly change between different blanks in weights between 0.1 and 500 kg. 

All from one – a holistic concept

Our customers are increasingly demanding overall solutions where we take responsibility for the entire production process, from technical documentation to delivered cast product. We have consequently developed the concept of >All from one<.

The history of Herräng

Herräng has a long tradition as a rural industrial community. Mining for iron ore has existed in the community ever since the 1500s. The ironworks started in 1902 with the installation of blast furnaces. The entire operation was finally wound up in 1969. There are still many traces in Herräng left from these times, including a large number of open-pit mines, where there is water and fine wildlife today.

Herräng is also known for a completely different business. The world's largest Lindy Hop dance camp has been held here since 1982.
It’s called Herräng Dance Camp.

Herräng is strategically located in the northern part of Stockholm County.
There is a large archipelago just outside Herräng, which makes for a rich nature experience.
