Enjoy the luxury of using a mobile phone from Vertu Precious metal know-how
Heraeus manufactures platinum and gold components for the premium brand Vertu
(firmenpresse) - Vertu, a daughter company of the mobile phone manufacturer Nokia, distributes luxury mobile phones with keys and casings made of precious metals for an exclusive clientele. For these exquisite mobile phones only the finest of quality materials, beyond the precious metals themselves, are used. This makes Vertu one of the most expensive mobile phones in the world.
Heraeus produces high-gloss polished components and parts for the casing from the finest quality metals. Whether it be platinum or gold, Heraeus has a tradition of broad-based expert knowledge in the fields of precious metals and production. This makes it possible to create a distinctive and luxury grade mobile phone.
Highly complex production flows and processes enable continually precise mechanical handling at the highest level, in order to produce tiny mobile communication components made of precious metals in an unrelenting high quality. The production area at Heraeus fulfills all requirements with regard to outstanding accuracy, elegant appearance, and a surface finish that lies well above the demands placed on even parts for medical instruments.
Proof of precious metal content in the manufactured components, for gold of 750 parts (this corresponds to a value of 18-carate gold) and for platinum of 950 parts (in both metals in relation to 1000) is guaranteed in the form of a hallmark from the Swiss Central Office for Precious Metals Control. The components are stamped with an official seal, picturing the head of a St. Bernhard dog, and hand-assembled by craftsmen at the English production facility to create a valuable and unique model.
Dr. Hans-Jürgen Wachter, Head of the Business Unit Functional Materials at Heraeus explains: "The collaboration and the prestigious name of the Vertu brand opens up a world of new possibilities in this interesting market niche for Heraeus to be involved in the Swiss luxury timepieces industry as well as in the luxury jewellery sector worldwide."
