About us

Our Chemical Products business unit manufactures a large range of precious metal compounds on an industrial scale in line with the DIN EN ISO 9001:2000 quality standard.

Our production plants are located in Germany, the U.S.A., Ireland , India, Hong Kong, the P.R.C. and the R.S.A.

Besides an extensive number of inorganics and their solutions, we also synthesize large-scale organometallics and homogeneous catalysts that industry requires commercially.

Moreover, Chemical Products is a leader in precious metal compounds for innovative applications and markets.

Heraeus' close relationship to customers in the fields of petrochemistry, electronics and the anode industries has led us to extend our product range to include selected non-precious metal compounds. So, today rhenium and its compounds are a regular part of our total competence.

In close co-operation with you, we can also develop new compounds on the basis of confidentiality agreements.

A tightly knit, global sales network as well as the local production sites in the fast growing industrial centers of our world provide short distances to our customers and comprehensive local service. Moreover, in most countries you can find Heraeus' sales offices with skilled staff for local support.

In addition to product expertise we are also skilled in the field of precious metal management. In close collaboration with our own Metal Trading Company, we can offer you tailor-made concepts for procuring precious metals and their subsequent positioning.

Full cycle operations for the recovery of precious metals and the administration of precious metal weight accounts are an integral part of our daily business.

We are continuously developing and expanding our product range in line with your demand. Heraeus welcomes direct contact for custom synthesis and enquiries for new compounds.
