International Trade and Brokerage of Castings
Today’s industry demands flexibility – both in production and procurement. Companies are increasingly faced with the challenge of sourcing high-quality castings at competitive prices and within acceptable delivery times. European foundries often reach their limits, especially in niche areas outside of large-volume series production. This is exactly where our International Castings division at TCT Tesic comes in: we offer customised solutions in the international castings trade – efficient, economical and tailored to your specific requirements.
Our mission: efficient casting solutions through global networks
Our goal is to provide you with high-quality castings through our worldwide network of foundries and suppliers – tailored precisely to your requirements. We understand that standard solutions are not always sufficient. Customised solutions are particularly in demand in areas with low demand but high requirements, such as municipal infrastructure, agriculture or mining.
We are at your side as a reliable intermediary based in Germany. We act as an interface between your company and qualified international foundries – personally, competently and with decades of experience in the industry.
Why TCT?
1. TCT Tesic as your central point of contact in Germany
As a German company with many years of experience in foundry technology, we offer you the advantages of a local contact partner – while also utilising international procurement sources. You benefit from German quality standards, reliability and clear communication without having to deal with different time zones, language barriers or cultural differences yourself. We take care of all coordination with suppliers, ensure quality and adherence to deadlines, and are available at any time to answer your questions.
2. Global network with direct contacts to foundries
Our network includes a large number of qualified partners worldwide – from Asia to Eastern Europe to South America. We do not rely on intermediaries, but work directly with foundries. This enables us to offer you castings at competitive prices and with high delivery reliability. At the same time, we maintain control over quality, production capacities and technical standards.
Direct contact means short distances, clear agreements and fast response times – for complex castings as well as standard products.
3. International representatives for local proximity
Our network is complemented by our own international representatives who are present on site at the foundries. These experts are familiar with both the local markets and the requirements of European customers. They monitor production, carry out quality controls, accompany shipping processes and ensure that your requirements are implemented exactly. This close cooperation ensures that we can react flexibly even in the event of short-term changes or urgent orders.
Our current product portfolio
We are continuously developing our range and adapting it to market requirements.
We currently offer the following castings, among others:
Sewer covers and pumps – for example from India, with proven quality and attractive terms.
In preparation: Expansion to include castings for
Agriculture (e.g. tractor parts, trailer connections)
Mining (e.g. wear parts, housings)
Municipal requirements (e.g. manhole covers, drainage)
Tools and fixtures for industrial
Applications
Our focus is always on applications where in-house production is hardly worthwhile for European foundries from an economic point of view.
Focus on niche markets – without competition from the automotive industry.
A key unique selling point of TCT Tesic is our consistent focus on niche markets. While many foundries specialise in the automotive industry or mass production, we deliberately concentrate on smaller and technically demanding areas of application. This strategic positioning has several advantages:
Less competition:
Since we do not operate in traditional large markets, we avoid direct competition with large-scale manufacturers.
Flexibility:
We can respond to individual customer requests, develop special solutions and solve technical challenges together with our partner foundries.
Capacity independence:
Thanks to our broad network, we can compensate for production bottlenecks in one region and offer alternatives.

Practical example:
Sewer castings from India
A good example of the efficiency of our network is the sewer casting sector. Many municipalities and cities regularly require manhole covers, gully covers and other cast iron products for their infrastructure. These products must be robust, compliant with standards and economical at the same time.
Our partner foundries in India have been reliably supplying high-quality ductile iron manhole covers in accordance with European standards for years. Thanks to direct local representation and proven production processes, we can offer both standard dimensions and customer-specific variants – with short delivery times and attractive prices.
Quality Assurance & Standards
Quality assurance is a key aspect of all international procurement. That is why we work exclusively with foundries that meet our technical and organisational requirements.
These include:
Material certificates and test reports
Dimensional accuracy according to drawings
Compliance with European standards (e.g. DIN EN 124 for ductile iron castings)
Visual and non-destructive testing
Documentation of production steps
Our local representatives carry out regular audits and quality checks. This ensures that your parts are manufactured exactly to specification.
