Forms & Dimensions

Aperam alloys are designed and elaborated at our Imphy melt shop, which is renowned for its metallurgy expertise and in-depth knowledge on an array of applications.
Starting from an ingot, the product first undergoes melting and re-melting before being sent to our hot and cold rolling mills, where it is perfectly transformed into the final product.
Our alloys are available in all forms, including billets, ingots, bars, plates, slabs, wire rod, and cold rolled strips.
