Cold Forge is an Australian supplier and developer of engineered products for rail, crane rail and selected industrial applications.
We work with customers to solve practical problems around product performance, maintenance, safety and supply. Our capability spans engineering and product development, technical sales, sourcing, quality assurance and supply chain, supported by Australian and international manufacturing partners.
For our customers, the focus is simple: products fit for the job, practical technical advice and dependable supply.
Rail is a core part of the Cold Forge business. We design, source and supply products used in track, sleepers, fastening systems, maintenance, monitoring and related rail applications.
Much of our product development is focused on extending service life, reducing maintenance and whole-of-life costs, and solving problems encountered in the field.
Our approach is to develop products where we see an opportunity to solve a customer or industry problem, and to partner with established specialist manufacturers where proven solutions already exist. This has led to Cold Forge-developed products used in Australia and overseas, alongside a growing range of international technologies that we represent and support locally.
Alongside our own product development, Cold Forge works with specialist international manufacturers to bring proven products and technologies to the Australian market. We hold exclusive Australian distribution arrangements across several product ranges and work with other specialist partners across rail, rail fastenings, maintenance equipment, monitoring and measurement, and crane rail applications.
Our Sydney-based capability includes engineering, product development, quality assurance and specialist machining. Across the broader team, technical sales, procurement and logistics allow us to support customers from product selection and application advice through to supply.
We work with manufacturing and supply partners in Australia, the United Kingdom, United States, Germany and Asia.
Cold Forge was established in Sydney in 1958 as a fastener manufacturer.
The business became a Tier 1 supplier to major automotive manufacturers including GM, Holden and Ford, building its capability around high-volume production, quality and critical fastener components. We continue to supply selected industrial customers with critical fastener components.
In 2008, Cold Forge developed its first range of rail fasteners, marking the company's expansion into the rail industry and subsequently into export markets including the United States.
Cold Forge ceased manufacturing in Sydney in 2011, moving to a model that combines our own engineering and product development with specialist Australian and international manufacturing partners.
Cold Forge has an established partnership with Progress Rail in the United States, which markets the GAGELOK product range in North America. Cold Forge also develops innovative timber fastening products for the US rail market, which are manufactured and marketed in partnership with Progress Rail.
Based in Sydney, we supply customers throughout Australia and support selected products in international markets.
Cold Forge operates a quality management system certified to ISO 9001.
