Implementing innovation together

Over the past few years, technological progress has developed into a real driving force for the future across all industries. It is thus important to recognize the future requirements of the market and to implement these in the form of market-ready solutions. 

At Diehl Metall, too, we live and breathe a corporate culture of innovation and are already investing in the trends of tomorrow. Thanks to our innovation management system throughout the Diehl Group, we generate future-oriented ideas based on our traditionally evolved products and technologies. We enter into joint dialog both with our customers and business partners as well as with companies outside our industries. In this way, impetus for new technological developments and intelligent products is generated in interdisciplinary teams. 

To ensure that innovations are nurtured, we give good ideas scope to develop and grow by means of our Corporate Venturing.

Living quality. Generating quality.

Quality is the satisfaction of our customers with our products and processes, and thus forms the cornerstone of our success. To achieve this, our quality claim goes beyond merely fulfilling quality standards alone. Rather, we see it as our task to align, safeguard and continuously improve processes to meet the requirements of our customers. Thanks to an international quality management system and a high level of quality awareness among our employees, we can offer our customers high-quality products with service-oriented processes across all our locations. 

To safeguard and verify our quality, we are certified according to the following management systems: 

• Quality: IATF 16949 and ISO 9001
• Environment: ISO 14001
• Energy: ISO 50001
• Occupational Safety: OHSAS 18001

The Diehl Metall quality principles apply:

• Customers

  

  With our products and services, we remain the partner of choice in our business fields. 

• Suppliers

  

  Our suppliers form a major part of our value-adding chains and are thus actively involved in our quality management system.

• Employees

  

  Our quality claim is lived by our employees at all locations worldwide.

• Processes

  

  We place great emphasis on error prevention instead of troubleshooting, and we proactively reduce waste.

• Environment / Energy

  

  With our energy-intensive operations, we place great importance on the responsible handling of energy manuacturing products that are ecologically sound and sustainable. 

Actively generating closed-loop material cycles.

Against the backdrop of climate change, it is becoming increasingly important to use the earth’s raw material reserves efficiently and in an environmentally sound way. We at Diehl Metall also contribute to this by actively striving to generate closed-loop material cycles.

We offer comprehensive metal management for copper and other non-ferrous metals, thereby promoting responsible handling of resources. These metals can be recycled completely and as often as required, without any impairment to quality.

• Services for customers

  Our customers profit from our metal management system: We offer sustainable recycling solutions for production waste and scrap, thereby also helping to minimize price risks in day-to-day business.  

• Raw material purchasing

  As part of raw material purchasing, we offer solutions for all raw materials which are suitable for the melting process used with copper alloys. The European standard for recycling raw materials EN 12861 and the primary metals traded on the London Metal Exchange (LME) form the basis for this.  

• Risk management

  Volatile raw material prices can represent a considerable risk for resource-intensive companies. With the aid of hedging strategies, we are able to support our customers in individually minimizing these risks for the operational business.
