Our Company

Manufacturer of cobalt-, nickel- and iron-based special alloys – founded in Willich in 2015.

Born from an encounter between competitors

German Special Alloys was founded in Willich in 2015 by Serdar Baysan and Dr. Hans-Werner Gundlach. The two founders had first met in 2011 at a trade fair in Cologne – as competitors. Rivalry turned into mutual respect and, eventually, into a partnership built on a shared conviction: high-quality alloys are best made where materials expertise, in-house production and regulatory approval are in one hand.
Today we manufacture welding rods, chill castings and metal powders on a cobalt, nickel and iron base in Willich – with our own production, certified processes and a team that consistently returns metal to the material cycle.
Dr. Hans-Werner Gundlach passed away on 22 June 2018. His commitment to precision and quality continues to shape our work today.
