The HOESCH Group is a leading global supplier of quality products for the treatment of liquid metals, with a focus on aluminum. For decades, they have contributed to the production of high-quality materials for a wide range of industries. Alloying Additives and Melt Treatment Fluxes give aluminum products their specific properties such as heat resistance, formability or elasticity.
Alloying Additives are excellent products for alloying aluminum in smelters, semi-finished products and remelting plants, as well as in molding foundries. HOESCH alloying elements give the aluminum produced the desired specific properties such as strength, formability, corrosion resistance or heat resistance. They are available in tablet or briquette form.

Master alloys based on primary aluminum or copper with alloying contents of 2-50% are fused alloys. These can be used in liquid aluminum to fine tune the alloy. By adding certain elements, the metal phases can be modified, and grain refinement can be carried out, thus improving the mechanical properties of the manufactured products.
Benefits
Pure metals can be used as a cost-effective alternative instead of master alloys. HOESCH offers pure metals for use in light metal casting, especially for aluminum and magnesium, but also in heavy metal casting (copper, iron, steel). In the steel industry, pure metals are regularly used alongside so-called ferro-alloys due to the higher existing temperature. They are available in pieces, flakes, granules, and ingots.
