I started Anglia Sign Casting in 1998 with my wife Caroline following the sudden death of her mum Barbara. Upon our subsequent visit to the crematorium to arrange the memorial, we discovered there would be a twelve week wait for delivery.
Having completed my apprenticeship as a skilled Moulder/Coremaker in a large local foundry in the early 1980's (and subsequently worked in the industry all my working life) decided something should be done to alleviate this long distressing wait for people. Using my skill and knowledge I opened the foundry with the sole intention of making top quality cast bronze and aluminium memorial plaques.
Most importantly I wanted to proof, make and deliver the plaques within 15 working days and I’m proud to say in nearly 20 years of being in business we have never failed to do so.
Our foundry is in a small Norfolk Village just outside of Norwich and we have a dedicated team of hard working, dedicated men and women including our son Robbie who started in the workshop learning the entire process from start to finish and is now in the office alongside me controlling the day to day running of the business.
Because we are a small family run business, we can offer the personal touch and can use our experience to help and advise. We also supply Councils, Charities and other Organisations with Dedication Plaques, Commemoration Plaques, War Memorials, Heritage Trail Plaques, Public Information Signs etc.
Each and every customer is special and individual to us and we realise what each plaque means to each individual customer.
