Materials for solid sheets

Single sheets can be processed from a thickness of 0.05 mm up to 20 mm as standard. The material specifications of our standard plates can be found in the table below. You can also obtain parts with surface finishes from us e.g. brushed or ground stainless steel, or galvanized sheet steel. If you need more materials, we will be happy to check your request for availability.
