NICKEL:

Nickel has a unique combination of properties, which make it useful in a great variety of applications in fields as diverse as aerospace, military, construction and consumer products. It has among other things a high melting point, high resistance to corrosion and oxidation, excellent heat resistance properties and a good alloying ability with many other metals.

Stainless steel production is the most important consumer of all the primary nickel that is produced each year with a market share of approximately 65%. Other steel and non-ferrous alloys production uses about 20%, about 9% is applied in plating and 6% in other uses including chemical applications.

Generally speaking nickel is categorized into nickel for plating or for melting purposes. Therefore, the bulk of our product portfolio will be described below basis the same distinction.
