Copper

The metal with outstanding properties

As mankind’s first metal, for more than 10,000 years copper (lat. Cuprum) is alongside gold, silver, and tin more important today than ever before and an essential part of our everyday lives. Alloying with tin and lead turns copper to bronze and when combined with zinc and nickel silver it becomes a component of alloys such as brass. Its exceptional properties have made the chemical element into a coveted high-tech material of the future: copper is resilient, malleable, easy to process and also possesses excellent thermal and electrical conductivity. In this age of rapid environmental change, it is also important not to forget: copper is almost 100 % recyclable! This ensures natural resources are preserved.
