Steel refers to metallic alloys with iron as their primary component which contain less than 2.06% carbon and belong to the ISO P group.

Corrosive-resistant steels include a range of steel grades characterised by high resistance to corrosion and acid.

Cast iron melts at a lower temperature than steel and has excellent flowing characteristics due to its chemical composition.

All metallic alloys containing little to no iron, with the exception of precious metals, are referred to non-ferrous (NF) metals.

Superalloys are high-strength metals whose complex composition of different metals and other elements makes them suitable for use in high-temperature applications.

Hardened steel is characterized by a particularly high mechanical resistance and is used in sectors such as the automotive industry and mechanical engineering.

Non-metallic materials are all materials that do not contain metal in their material matrix.
