MetalĂşrgica RRS was founded in November, 27th
1987, aiming to attend, immediately, the cast demand of a
company from the hydraulic pumps market, which had to turn
to neighbor towns to have its assembly line provided. At
this point, three friends were sharing the same dream and
goal: to establish a small business to attend the needs and
help the recovery of another company that was already
working with the insolvent’s estate system.
RRS started its activity in January, 1990, in
a small rented building and had, at that moment, two
employees and the partners working as one, situation where
everyone worked for only one client, but with assured
quality. During the first year, one of the friends left the
company once he had only joined the business to help out
during the beginning, because he was already partner in
another business and he didn’t have the interest to keep on
the partnership due to his lack of time and knowledge on
this market. As the demand of this client was limited, RRS
started to search for new clients and discovered a very
promising market and with a supply need. Propelled by this
potential, RRS searched, constantly for investments in
continuous improvement and always focusing the client. With
this policy, the outcome was positive: and constant growth,
new equipments and an increase in the employment number. The
rented building was now small to shelter the company. It was
bought a bigger area, where a shed was built and in January
1990, RRS start operating in its own facility and free of
the rent payment it was possible to increase the investments
in improvements and enlargements, focusing always on the
client satisfaction, quality assurance and cost reduction.
Year after year the company kept growing. Nowadays, the
company counts with about 70 (seventy) employees and only
one remaining partner from the ones who started the company.
The investments are still being made in improvements. The
foundry market, especially, the one compounded by micro and
small companies is discredited concerning the delivery
punctuality and responsibility. With that in mind, RRS
believe in consciousness-raising and qualification of its
employees, purchasing new machinery and equipments and
improvement in process and management, aiming the product
quality and trust of the clients. RRS intends to be part of
the solution instead of being part of the problem.
