Expertise gained from decades of experience
the (he)art of engraving

Etching technology is a traditional craftsmanship used to apply textures to metal surfaces by means of chemical reaction. This technology is used in particular for the further treatment or finishing of plastic injection moulding dies made of steel or, to a limited extent, non-ferrous metals.

Skilled craftsmanship with decades of experience. The on going development of the technology ensure that customer designs and functionality requirements are met. Our customers can select suitable surfaces from a wide range of patterns or develop individual textures based on these patterns.
