Tréfimétaux

Tréfimétaux is a French metallurgy conglomerate formed in 1962 by the merger of the Tréfileries et Laminoirs du Havre with the Compagnie française des métaux. In 1967, Tréfimétaux was acquired by Pechiney and in 1987 was sold to the Italian company SMI. Various plants were closed or sold over the years, leaving two factories in France at Givet (copper and brass tubes) and Niederbruck (copper bars). These factories are now operated by Tréfimétaux SAS, a subsidiary of Cupori (60%) and SMI (40%).
