Lead-free products

Lead-free - The future is now!

Sustainable materials for the watchmaking, jewellery and precision engineering industries - future-proof and legally compliant: This is why lead-free alloys are indispensable.

The requirements placed on materials are rising, in terms of both technology and regulation. In the watchmaking and precision engineering industries in particular, lead-free materials are gaining in importance.
The REACH and RoHS rules place major restrictions on the use of lead. Some sectors already specify a maximum lead content of 0.05%; watches, jewellery and leather goods, for example. A full ban is likely by 2030.

The result is: Companies need to take action to meet legal requirements and at the same time ensure the quality of their products.

Our solution: Lead-free materials that meet your requirements

For several years now we have been investing in developing and distributing lead-free materials that satisfy the most demanding standards, with no compromises on quality or performance. We offer lead-free alternatives for almost all standard alloys.

The benefits for you:

Compliant with REACH and RoHS
Excellent machinability and dimensional accuracy
Ideal solutions for luxury goods, watch movements and precision engineering applications

REACH-Legal Ordinance

Strong arguments in favour of lead-free materials

Using lead-free materials is not just a regulatory requirement. It creates genuine added value:

Greater product security
Long-term legal certainty
Supports your sustainability strategy
Boosts your image in high-value target markets

Join us in using lead-free precision – reliable, economic and forward-looking!
