The One-Stop Consultancy from Marketing to Series Production

My name is Fabian Niklas. I’m a passionate material engineer that found my calling in the dynamic world of foundries and started Casting-Campus GmbH in 2022 to support the industry.

The margins in the foundry industry have been thinning for years. When I worked in a foundry, I noticed this trend in every new RFQ. But with Rheocasting, I saw the potential to break that cycle and bring in new, highly profitable applications into a foundry. Rheocasting gives you an unfair advantage over your competition.

However, I learned quickly that the bottleneck of this technology is not the method, the alloys, or the engineering. The bottleneck and complexity lie in the marketing and business development, as Rheocasting parts are not on portals and require direct customer communication. That is why I built Casting-Campus into a one-stop consultancy, from marketing to series production.

What does Casting-Campus stand for?

We are on a quest to bring foundries into new markets and profitable casting ventures. Casting-Campus GmbH is a consultancy committed to blending technologies such as high-pressure die-casting (HPDC) and Rheocasting with broader developments in the automotive and telecom industry, sustainability movements, and online marketing tools to fill vacant and/or unprofitable DCMs.

Coming from materials engineering, the core expertise lies in connecting various input factors across the entire organization to implement and optimize casting processes, develop innovative part designs, and execute strategic marketing initiatives. This journey has been fueled by a dedication to helping the foundry industry thrive in an ever-evolving industry landscape.

At Casting-Campus GmbH, we go beyond traditional consulting. Our premium services cover positioning, market development, sales support, feasibility checks, internal process reviews, and part development. We don’t just consult; we guide foundries from concept to casting. All these solutions come in packages, just like your Netflix subscription.
