history

Founding document of the company from 1924

In 1885, Louis Aufranc opened a precious metal smelter. In 1924 he merged his company with the Zanelli company and founded the stock corporation Cendres + Métaux SA. The main activity of the new company was the processing of precious metal containing materials. This main activity gave the company its name, because the processing of precious metal-containing materials produces ashes ( FrenchCendres ”) and metals (French “ Métaux ”).
