The first step for high-quality steel, aluminum, and copper
Metallurgy is the first step in the production of high-quality metals – and perhaps the most important. This is where the basis for the final quality of the products is laid. But also because this is the phase where the greatest potential lies in turning metals green. That’s why SMS group focuses on the plants for both virgin material processing and for recycling.
