Why Non-Ferrous Metals? Advantages at a Glance

Non-ferrous metals offer an ideal combination of functionality and aesthetics. They are typically corrosion-resistant, easy to work with, and suitable for both technical and decorative applications. Depending on the material, they are ideal for electrical uses, precision components, durable constructions, or high-quality design projects.

Copper: Conductive, corrosion-resistant, versatile

Copper is known for its excellent electrical and thermal conductivity as well as its good formability. This makes it a sought-after material in electrical engineering, mechanical engineering, and construction. Copper sheets, plates, and foils are commonly used for conductors, shielding, roofing, and creative projects. Thanks to its natural corrosion resistance, copper is also suitable for long-lasting applications.

Brass: Dimensionally stable alloy with an elegant appearance

Brass is an alloy of copper and zinc that combines good mechanical properties with a characteristic golden-yellow surface. It is durable, easy to machine, and versatile in use – for example in apparatus and machine construction, plumbing, electrical components, as well as interior design and decorative applications. Brass is ideal for precision parts and visually appealing components.

Bronze: Robust, wear-resistant, for demanding applications

Bronze, a copper-tin alloy, stands for high strength, wear resistance, and excellent corrosion resistance. It is used wherever components must withstand high mechanical loads, such as plain bearings, springs, contacts, and technical constructions. At the same time, bronze offers a high-quality appearance and a long service life.
