Copper


Copper is a reddish-brown metal known for its excellent electrical and thermal conductivity. It’s highly ductile, easy to work with, and resistant to corrosion, making it a staple material across electrical, architectural, and industrial applications. In sheet form, copper can be precisely cut, routed, engraved, or folded to suit a wide range of custom uses.

Its natural antimicrobial properties and distinct aesthetic also make copper a popular choice for design features, commercial kitchens, and signage. As it ages, copper develops a unique patina – a greenish layer that protects the underlying metal and adds visual character.

We can process copper into complex shapes or simple profiles with high precision, ensuring a perfect fit for your project. From intricate engraving for signage to large-scale architectural panels, copper offers a blend of beauty, performance, and durability that’s hard to match. Whether you need raw sheets prepared to your specifications or fully finished components, copper’s versatility makes it a go-to solution across multiple industries.
