Metals, Alloys & Raw Materials
.Ist das alles die gleiche seite?
Metals, alloys, and raw materials are the base stock manufacturers use as input for machining, forming, and fabrication. The suppliers below produce, stock, or distribute steel, stainless steel, aluminium, and other metal and alloy raw materials in bar, sheet, and profile form across European industry.
What Metals, Alloys & Raw Materials suppliers provide
Suppliers in this category cover structural and stainless steels, aluminium, copper alloys, and other metals supplied as bar, sheet, plate, coil, or profile stock, along with basic cutting-to-length and stocking services. Their core competence lies in matching material grade, form, and certification level to the customer’s manufacturing process, whether machining, forming, welding, or fabrication. Many also provide material testing, certification documentation, and small-quantity or cut-to-size supply alongside bulk stock. In the pre-selection phase, compare which materials, grades, and stock forms each supplier holds, and which certification levels they can supply, rather than individual price lists.
Relevant standards
Structural steel is commonly specified to EN 10025, and stainless steels to EN 10088. Material traceability is documented through inspection certificates under DIN EN 10204, such as type 2.2 or the more rigorous type 3.1. Non-European material grades are often referenced against ASTM standards. Supplier quality management is typically certified to ISO 9001, and REACH Regulation EC 1907/2006 compliance applies to substances used in the material.
Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between a 2.2 and a 3.1 inspection certificate?
Under DIN EN 10204, a 2.2 certificate is based on non-specific testing from production records, while a 3.1 certificate confirms the specific material tested is the material supplied, validated by the manufacturer’s authorised inspection representative.
