Copper
As a natural resource copper is valuable in every form, be it a vital trace element in the human body or a mineral found in the earth’s crust. Many advantages have been dicovered of copper and its alloys, notably its excellent forming properties, strength, thermal and electrical conductivity. Copper has proved to be one of the most important worked metals in modern times.
Copper is a unique material for ecologically sustainable developments and is 100% recyclable. More than half of today’s raw copper is already produced by reusing returned material.
