Home Appliances
Home appliances and refrigeration
We serve manufacturers of refrigerators, washers, dryers, stoves and HVAC equipment that produce in series, with high volumes and very demanding finish standards. Manufacturing cabinets, drums, brackets, hardware and molds requires materials suited to forming and deep drawing, with good corrosion resistance, uniform surface finish and dimensional repeatability. At NAT MAC we supply sheet, carbon and stainless steels in the right grades, plus mold and tooling steels for the plastic and metal parts of the product. We add cutting, facing and grinding services and technical advice, helping sustain the quality, productivity and consistency that high-volume lines in this industry demand.
Main features
