Flat products for cutlery

Our production of strips of the required width have no intermediate joins and feature excellent plastic deformability, which make possible to automate the knife handle moulding process, the result being considerable savings in terms of time and labour.

Cut-to-size bars are available for optimal coining of forks and spoons.
