Schmelzmetall Selects Metalshub to Streamline Raw Material Procurement

Düsseldorf, Germany. 10 July 2025 – Metalshub, the leading software provider for the metals and mining industry, is pleased to announce that Schmelzmetall AG, a renowned manufacturer of copper-based high-performance alloys, has joined its digital procurement platform to enhance its sourcing of strategic raw materials.

Following its recent acquisition by AMPCO METAL S.A. in 2024, Schmelzmetall is increasing its operational capabilities in aerospace, additive manufacturing, and defence applications.

Schmelzmetall will exclusively use Metalshub to manage its raw material procurement, foregoing any additional procurement tools. This decision underscores the company’s confidence in Metalshub’s capabilities to deliver end-to-end digital workflows that support strategic sourcing and supplier discovery. “We are proud to welcome Schmelzmetall to the Metalshub community,” said Dr. Sebastian Kreft, Co-Founder and Managing Director at Metalshub. “Their trust in our platform affirms the value of our solution for companies seeking to digitalise their procurement processes and secure critical materials in a competitive market.”
