Challenges faced by the industry
The demand for raw materials for the production of defence applications is relatively low. Moreover, the leading system integrators and first-class contractors in the defence industry generally buy semi-finished and finished products made from high-quality materials rather than raw materials. MCB Specials can offer a wide range of high-performance alloys and services to the subcontractors that produce these semi-finished products.
MCB Specials
MCB Specials started as a supplier of non-ferrous materials in 1936. We are part of the MCB Group and have expanded our range of products and services over the years to become a total supplier. We offer an extensive choice of products to various industries and collaborate with logistics partners in a finely meshed distribution network. At MCB Specials, we offer the defence industry both materials and technical advice. Thanks to our global collaboration with partners and factories, we always find a solution, even when confronted by challenging grades and shapes.
Short supply chain
We focus on consistent quality assurance and supply chain optimisation. Because we can deliver materials sawn or cut according to a drawing, we eliminate unnecessary steps in the process. Thanks to our extensive experience in this area, we can offer customers highly flexible supply arrangements.
Extremely cost-efficient
A short time-to-market is only possible if the parties involved work together closely. That is exactly what we do with our global partners and factories. An EDI link is a further possibility, leading to major savings in the entire value chain.
Materials
Materials are supplied according to AMS, ASTM, ASME, EN, ISO and
MIL-T standards. We deliver high-quality materials of a homogeneous composition in connection with high-precision machining and ultra-cleanliness. We also offer heat treatment of materials, such as annealing according to customer specification and/or customer-specific packaging and traceability.
