Since 1946, the organisation has brought together suppliers of technologies and solutions for the foundry industry, consistently supporting the sector’s development and fostering business relationships worldwide.

Eight Decades of Innovation and Cooperation

AMAFOND – Associazione Italiana Fornitori Fonderie – has represented Italian suppliers to the foundry industry since 1946, promoting knowledge exchange, technological development and international business cooperation.

Throughout its eight decades of activity, the association has accompanied the transformation of the foundry industry, promoting the expertise of Italian companies and technological solutions that respond to the industry's evolving needs.

The 80th anniversary is not only an opportunity to reflect on past achievements but also to discuss the future of a sector in which innovation, production efficiency and competitiveness in international markets are playing an increasingly important role.

One of the key events of the anniversary year will be the International Foundry Forum 2026, taking place in Venice from 4 to 6 November. The event will bring together foundry industry representatives, business leaders and experts interested in the sector's future development.

The Forum will provide a platform for exchanging experiences, discussing the challenges facing the industry and building international business relationships.

The significance of AMAFOND's anniversary has also been highlighted by the industry portal Foundry-Planet, which published an article dedicated to the association, looking back at its history and contribution to the development of the foundry industry.

The Italian association's 80-year history demonstrates the vital role played by organisations that connect manufacturers, technology suppliers and experts in advancing the industry.
