If you’ve worked with us for a while, you may already call us GW. Now we’re adopting the name ourselves: G&W Foundry now goes by GW Foundry.
The ampersand is gone, but nothing else about how we work has changed. The same team stands behind every part, and the same people answer the phone.
A New Look for How We Work Today
Along with the name, we’ve introduced a new logo. The mark is a globe crossed by lines that connect points around its edge, like the foundries in our network, to a single orange point where they meet. That orange point is GW: one accountable partner at the center of every assignment, wherever in the world the part is made. The line beneath the name, Globally Sourced Casting Solutions, says the same thing in words.
The refresh reflects how much our business has changed. We started by operating our own foundries. Today we manage a network of qualified domestic and international foundries, and every assignment starts with one question: where should this part be made?
Answering that question well takes modern thinking. Cost, capability, lead time and supply chain risk now shift month to month, and the right source for a part this year may not be the right one next year. Our new identity is built for that reality: global options, with one U.S.-based partner accountable for the result.
What Hasn’t Changed
A new name and logo don’t change what our customers count on:
- One point of accountability. Domestic, international or both, we quote the source that fits your part and stand behind the result.
- One quality standard, everywhere. Every foundry in our network is qualified, audited and actively managed, with inspection and documentation before parts ship.
- Customers first, since 1932. When fire destroyed our foundry in 2011, our customers asked us not to stop. We rebuilt GW around what they needed, and they still hold us to it.
What You’ll See Next
You’ll see the new GW Foundry name and logo on our website, quotes, paperwork and packaging over the coming weeks. If you still have us saved as G&W, you’ll reach the same team.
Thank you to the customers who have trusted us for decades, and to those who are just getting to know us. If you have a casting assignment and want a partner responsible for the result, we’d like to hear about it.
