Full transparency and traceability: our products for the aerospace and defense industry

Molybdenum, tungsten, tungsten heavy alloys, tantalum, and their alloys are important materials for the aerospace and defense industry. The key reasons for this are their special material properties: their excellent high-temperature strength, density, and tensile strength, their good mechanical machinability and radiation shielding effect. In our ISO 9001 and AS/EN 9100-certified production facilities we manufacture penetrators, fragments, jet vanes, nozzles, shape charge liners, precision balancing weights, anti-vibration weights, X-ray shields, and satellite propulsion components amongst others. We are also ISO14001 and OHSAS 18001-certified, and our production site in France has the UTC Aerospace Systems Supplier Gold status. 

We have designed, built, and secured a vertically integrated, global value and supply chain: from ore concentrates and recycled components to customer components and assemblies. Plansee has a worldwide production network that guarantees a secure supply of raw materials and a global delivery capability. We are committed to transparency and traceability, and ensure via numerous measures that we do not use any raw materials which come from socially, ethically, or ecologically questionable sources.

Our products enable precision-critical missions, high impact, high reliability, sustainability, and resilience in extreme and emergency environments; and key manufacturing and tooling solutions utilized across the global supply chain. In close development partnership with you, our materials scientists and engineers work on innovative and customized solutions.
