Traxit International provides the wire drawing industry with
a complete range of lubricants to suit all types of wire for all
applications.
From simple beginnings in 1881 in Schwelm, Germany, Traxit
has grown to be one of the largest wire drawing lubricant
producers in the world, operating from its manufacturing bases
in Germany, China and USA.
Its lubricants are sold throughout the world with its own
companies, agents or representatives present in over 150
countries.
Throughout this time the company has
concentrated solely on wire drawing
lubricants and compounds.
With extensive research and development
facilities, all its technicians are devoted
to improving products and processes for
wire production.
With over 200 different formulations in the
product range Traxit is able to guarantee
the right product for all customer needs,
whether general or specialised. The choice
of the ideal lubricant requires as much
technical information as possible.
All products meet EC health and safety regulations and are
backed up with ISO 9001 and OSHAS 18001.
Due to the world price conflict of all raw materials and general
costs, Traxit is continuously developing lubricants for the
reduction of total production costs (€/to wire). This advantage of
higher productivity helps customers produce their own material
in a cheaper way.
The company will be in hall 9, stand F26 at wire Düsseldorf 2014.
