Become a NFFS Member
Because NFFS is a trade association, our memberships are for companies rather than individuals. When your company joins, all of your employees are entitled to membership benefits. NFFS membership is an effective way to help your foundry simplify its regulatory compliance activities, keep abreast of new technology and government regulations, reduce day-to-day operating expenses, improve plant profitability levels, and much more! From exclusive webinars and events, to networking opportunities, and advocacy on behalf of the foundry industry, there are many reasons to become a NFFS member.
