Kovatch Castings - Precision Investment Castings

Good news for Kovatch Castings in NE Ohio! Kovatch submitted an advanced energy funding proposal last October and was granted an award of $1 million to help them replace three inefficient ovens with two energy-efficient gas ovens at its foundry. The new ovens are expected to reduce gas consumption by 47 percent. They will also be expanding the building and creating about 45 jobs. Doug Kovatch, President, said his company is contributing $2 million to the project which is projected to cost $3 million.

“We expect this to have a huge impact on our company,” said Kovatch, whose father founded the company on Home Avenue in Akron in 1976 while the Kovatchs lived in Parma. “Our sales were $15 million in 2009, and we project to have sales at $25 million in five to seven years.”

Kovatch Castings has been a stalwart leader in the investment casting industry and Doug Kovatch is the current
president of the Investment Casting Institute for the 2009-2010 term.

buyCASTINGS.com has purchased aluminum castings recently from Kovatch, made from FOPAT polyurethane patterns in place of wax. The castings will be used as replacement parts for a military application.
