"Committed to transforming the metals industry, using our patented process to produce metals and innovative alloy powders, predominantly for 3DPrinting

Metalysis Ltd. is a growing company with global rights to a disruptive solid state metal powder manufacturing technology, originally based on the Fray-Farthing-Chen (“FFC”) Process invented at the University of Cambridge, UK; a low-cost and environmentally friendly process over traditional metal production methods. The process works by introducing metal oxides into a molten salt bath where it is electrolysed to form metal powders.

The Company is committed to transforming the metals industry through the commercial exploitation of our patented process for producing Titanium, Tantalum, other metals and innovative alloy powders.

Based in South Yorkshire, Metalysis benefits from a highly supportive shareholder base which includes ILUKA RESOURCES, WOODFORD FUNDS and BHP BILLITON. This has enabled the Company to raise substantial funds, including £22 m in CY2016 to increase productivity and carry out its Generation 4 (“Gen 4”) expansion. Being modular, Gen 4 has the potential be scaled up to provide hundreds of tonnes per annum of valuable speciality metal alloy powders.

Metalysis owns the global rights to a disruptive platform technology capable of producing a wide range of metals and alloys at a lower cost and with a smaller environmental footprint than traditional processes."
