Research and development

R&D is a key function within our organization and it plays a vital role both for new business development as well as for perfecting our processing techniques. Our R&D is ready to assist our partners in researching and developing new solutions by offering technical support.

Technical success depends also on matching the best materials with the most suited processing Technology. R&D will help to find the best semi-finished product according the technical challenges related to the finished component.

Our Services Include

  • Advice and support on material selection and development
  • Consultancy on manufacturing and processing techniques
  • Extensive laboratory testing capabilities
  • Updates on new materials
