Overview

Cadillac Casting produces 100% of its products in ductile iron, using a horizontally parted CE SpoMatic green sand line and a Precision Sand mold system. The melt unit is an 84-inch water walled cupola with the permitted capacity to melt 200,000 tons per year. Local reporting in June 2026 said the company is increasing production after a Georgia plant shut down.
