Scandium
Scandium is an ultra-light technology metal with an extraordinary effect. In aluminum alloys, fuel cells and semiconductors, it improves performance, stability and energy efficiency - in applications that place the highest demands.
We deliver what makes you lighter, stronger and more efficient
Scandium makes the difference - even if it is only used in very small quantities.
In aluminum alloys it provides more strength with less weight, in solid oxide fuel cells it increases conductivity and service life.
As a critical high-performance metal, scandium is virtually irreplaceable - but difficult to access.
We are closing this gap for the European industry.
Scandium in figures - 2024
01
Scandium is extracted worldwide in small quantities as a by-product - mainly in China, Russia, Australia and Ukraine.
02
Demand will grow strongly due to applications in aviation, electromobility, hydrogen technology and additive manufacturing - supply remains limited.
03
The market for scandium compounds such as scandium oxide (Sc₂O₃) is small, but strategically highly relevant.
04
The German Commodities Group specifically develops projects with potential scandium content and secures access to specialized producers.
Precision for top applications
We supply scandium in the form of oxide, metal or as an alloy additive - depending on customer requirements and intended use.
Our customers are manufacturers in the aerospace, energy and specialty materials industries.
We deliver where lightweight construction and performance must be uncompromising.
