Quality and safety are the most important elements to consider when manufacturing a household appliance. Whether your concern is protecting electrical circuits, regulating range burner temperatures, or simply manufacturing a quality device such as a thermostat, we can show you how our products can help you maintain efficiency and reliability at a low cost.

Materials in the automotive sector have to endure the toughest of requirements. They must also be attune to the latest developments, such as being lightweight, cost effective and most importantly, safe. Choosing the correct material for your application is crucial. We can help.

Clad Materials can offer the most sought after qualities in cookware: uniform heat distribution and high thermal conductivity. Our roll-to-roll cladding process allows cost effective production of superior cookware that is clad overall, not just on the bottom. We can help you design a more durable, better performing product, at a lower cost.

EMS pioneered the development of clad for a wide array of applications in the electrical industry. Copper clad materials combine the high electrical and thermal characteristics of copper, while being safe, reliable and cost effective. It can also protect against mechanical and rodent damage, and errant electrical strikes which can disrupt service and be costly to repair. We can show you how cladding copper can offer excellent electrical conductivity for your product or business.

We understand that energy efficiency and safety are key factors in today's market. Our high quality Clad Materials are the preferred choice because of their unique multi-layer properties, especially as performance demands increase for higher energy, smaller cells for hearing aids and other electronic devices. We can help you choose the best material for many of your applications, such as Automotive Hybrid Electronics, Power Conversion and Energy Storage.

Clad metals have been used to make metal catalytic converter substrate for more than 15 years, and the cold roll bonding process that made this possible was developed by Engineered Materials Solutions. With a new fabrication method tailored specifically for ferritic stainless steel foil used in catalytic converter substrates, our product DuraFoil™meets the industry’s requirements for strength, formability and physical properties. Grades of DuraFoil™ with extra high aluminum content (7.5 weight %) and foil that is ultra-thin (30 micrometers) can be made available for specific applications which demand special ductility, toughness, and resistance to oxidation.

Increasing heat concerns in cell phones and other hand held devices or higher power electronics are pushing the limits of heat sink technology. Our clad materials offer better thermal performance without sacrificing weldability or aesthetics. The wide range of brazing temperatures of EMS titanium brazing foils can also provide flexibility for brazing and heat treating of titanium and titanium alloys - We can show you how.

Thermostatic Bimetals assume an important function in regulating temperature-dependent variables with relatively low construction costs. Whether or not you realize it, Thermostatic Bimetal elements surround you everyday. They are used in Wall Thermostats and Water Heaters to regulate temperature, Gas Meters to control and measure flow, and Steam Traps to vent air and steam from pipes, just to name a few. At EMS, we have produced more than one hundred unique Thermostatic Bimetals that can be tailored to meet the specific needs of your application.
