CSM is a steel fabricator located in Hamont-Achel, Limburg, Belgium.
They have manufactured roller coaster supports and track for a wide range of clients, such as Mack Rides, Vekoma, KumbaK, and Efteling.[1][2][3]
History
CSM was founded in 1964.[4]
Its first roller coaster projects were the Vekoma Kamikaze at Conko's Party Pier and Goudurix at Parc Astérix.[2]
Projects
Mack Rides has stated that CSM produces the supports for most of its roller coasters. The only confirmed projects are Blue fire Megacoaster, Helix, Pulsar, and Voltron Nevera.[1][2]
CSM has manufactured many unspecified instalations of Vekoma models, including the Boomerang, Suspended Looping Coaster, Invertigo, and Madhouse.[5]
It is likely that CSM was not the only steel fabricator involved in most of the projects listed.
