Materials

Competence in Brass is a suitable description for our production portfolio, because here lies our core area of production. However a number of other materials are processed by us in our proven quality.

We process the following materials:

  • Brass, lead-free brass, low-lead brass
  • Aluminium
  • Copper
  • Red bronze
  • Machining steel
  • Stainless steel
  • Synthetics
  • Customized materials when required

Due to the increasing environmental protection specifications from our customers, we have dealt intensively with lead-free brass (CuZn21Si3P) and low-lead brass (CUZn42) and have developed an expertise which enables us to process this demanding material economically.
Together with our partners in the sanitary branch, we are able to reach the increased demands of the universal specifications for drinking water when processing this material.
Additionally, this antimicrobial material has the advantage of reducing the number of germ cells on highly frequented contact surfaces, which is a great advantage for the medical branch.
Specifically for the demands of the automotive and electro branches this lead-free material contains no toxic additives. This satisfies the future specification of the EU guide lines for old vehicles and electro-waste, today.
