We supply a range of industries, including automotive and aerospace, which rely upon high quality ignition products. As a leading manufacturer of fabricated platinum group metal products, we have the experience and technical expertise required to offer difficult-to-work metals and alloys in the geometries our customers require; whether that be lengths of wire or pre-cut electrode tips.

In recent years, we’ve made a significant investment into the research and development of new ignition materials, novel test methods, process improvements and enhanced quality assurance. This culminated in the development of a new ignition alloy for one of our automotive customers, helping them develop their next generation of products by achieving a 50% increase in material strength.

We also offer a range of flexible consignment and metal management options to give you the products you need, when you need them.
