Company History T


his year, 2019, PRECICAST.fr will celebrate their 50th anniversary. Located in the Vendôme vineyards


and close to “Les Châteaux de la Loire,” the company was founded by the two Chabilan brothers and a cousin on their family land which is 150 kilometers southwest of Paris. (The creation in 1969 was done some years before another company of no relation named PRECICAST arose.) From the beginning, PRECICAST.fr


was dedicated to casting a large range of carbon and stainless steels for diverse industries such as aerospace, defense, medical, hydraulics, railways and the food industry. But the aerospace market quickly became their core business.

Developments Year after year, PRECICAST gained a solid reputation on small accurate and diversified components at the point that makes of PRECICAST.fr a key foundry on connecting devices for airplane engine


harnesses. For a wide variety of pipes and manifolds PRECICAST performs the cavity without ceramic core thanks to a proprietary process. Near the 2000s, Gilles Renard
