About Hofmann Ceramic
Hofmann Ceramic develops, produces and distributes solutions and products made of technical ceramics for the foundry industry and specializes in the field of mold filling and solidification. The portfolio includes pressed round-hole filters in various grades, exothermic low-emission risers and reusable cooling chills. In addition, the company supports its customers with services such as calculating, designing and simulating modern gating systems as well as assistance with gating technology and process optimization to reduce costs. For custom solutions, modern methodology such as CAD design, 3D printing and simulation is used, in some cases based on patented systems for guiding, deflecting and drawing. Hofmann Ceramic also develops further applications for the wire and cable industry as well as the textile industry. Production uses modern, precise equipment and AI-supported quality assurance methods with complete traceability; the company has always relied on local supply chains.
