Quality That Redefines an Industry
Puhakka Metalcasting Company delivers the world’s premier high-integrity aluminum castings. Our proprietary Functional Counter-Gravity™ process represents a fundamental shift in casting science - a breakthrough that eliminates turbulence, reduces defects, and consistently produces components of unmatched density and reliability.
Our quality policy is founded on the values that shape every action we take: Honor, Integrity, and Discipline. These principles define how we engineer, how we manufacture, and how we serve our customers.
Quality Certifications
Puhakka Metalcasting Company is the only foundry in the world qualified by all four leading Classification Societies to produce aluminum castings for cryogenic LNG applications, one of the most demanding environments in engineering.
Classification Societies are independent technical authorities that set safety and performance standards for ships, offshore structures, and energy systems. Their approval means our metal is trusted for the coldest, harshest, most safety-critical environments on the planet.
Puhakka is approved by:
Lloyd’s Register (LR)
The strictest cryogenic casting standard in the world. LR’s mechanical and toughness requirements are so demanding that no other foundry has been able to qualify. Passing LR proves our castings maintain strength and ductility even at extreme cryogenic temperatures.
American Bureau of Shipping (ABS)
ABS approval recognizes our ability to deliver castings with consistent mechanical properties, clean microstructure, and full documentation, essential for North American marine and LNG projects.
DNV
DNV sets the global benchmark for offshore energy and LNG safety. Approval confirms that Puhakka’s casting process, testing, and traceability meet the rigorous standards required for offshore platforms, LNG carriers, and hydrogen infrastructure.
Bureau Veritas (BV)
BV certification validates that our aluminum castings meet international requirements for marine, industrial, and cryogenic applications. This ensures broad acceptance across Europe, Asia, and global shipyards.
HONOR
Respect for the craft, the science, and the trust our customers place in us.
Integrity
