The AFS Safety & Health Committee, under the guidance of the Environmental, Health and Safety Division, assists foundries in meeting their obligation to provide a workplace free of recognized health and safety hazards. This fifth revision (2025) of the “AFS Health and Safety Guides” was completed under the direction and guidance of the AFS Safety & Health Committee to provide technical updates to 17 of the 68 individual guides due to new Federal OSHA regulations and improved information on hazards and best management practices.

The 2025 Transactions of the American Foundry Society includes 62 technical papers encompassing a wide range of metalcasting technology. These papers cover the latest in metalcasting research and smart manufacturing, process and equipment developments, environmental health & safety, and foundry best-practice case studies. Papers are approved for inclusion in AFS Transactions after a rigorous peer-review process to ensure only original work of the highest quality is included. AFS Transactions has been published annually since 1896 and is considered the premier technical publication of the international metalcasting industry.
