What is tungsten?

Tungsten is a chemical element and the very core of our powder products. The raw material supply of tungsten comes from four different sources:

  • recycled material from our recycling program
  • purchased tungsten concentrates from mines worldwide
  • supply of semi-finished products from a few, selected tungsten smelting plants
