More about IFA

With a heritage that goes back over two and a quarter centuries, IFA is today actively building on its tradition of technical excellence, innovation and flexibility.

Renowned for our expertise in Open Die Forging since 1898, it’s a process which, to this day we continue to develop and improve further still. However our striving for even better solutions doesn’t end there. It equally applies to everything we do, bringing together a wealth of accumulated skills, knowledge and experience with the best in leading edge technology. IFA’s Commitment to technical excellence and innovation can be seen in the way we employ the very latest forging equipment, furnaces and metal forming techniques. More importantly, it can be seen in the fast turnaround and quality of our end products.

Whatever the project, or challenges involved, IFA has the proven ability to deliver the right solution at the right time. For example, our investment in Ring Rolling technology perfectly complements our Open Die Forging facilities, giving our customers all the advantages of an ultra-reliable, truly `one-stop’ source. We also lead the way with a range of methods of products and process development that allow forming for even the most difficult projects and materials. Add our ability to support customers through the fast manufacture of prototype and test rig components and you can see why IFA continues to go from strength to strength.
