MAXAM Europe, S.A products

Nitric acid has a wide variety of uses: from the manufacture of polyurethane fertilizers and cleaning products to its use as a disinfectant. Similarly, it is a fundamental element in the chain of production of energetic materials.

Energetic nitrocellulose is a strategic raw material, used throughout the world as thefundamental precursor to a wide range of energy products: smokeless gunpowder for sports cartridges, military ammunition, rocket motor propellants, fuel loads, pyrotechnics.

TheMicet Cetane Index Improver seeks toincrease the performance of diesel enginesand reduce their environmental effects, through faster and more efficient ignition, whilereducing pollutant gases emissions.

The CSB 1 powder is also optimal for reloading metallic ammunition and is characterized by its regularitu and precision. Our wide range of gunpowder is characterized by a highstabilized and gelled nitrocellulosecontent, and guarantees an optimal speed and pressure bycontrolling the physical, chemical and ballistic characteristics. The essence of our company is the broad mastery of energy materials.

Tn the manufacture of our shotshell cases and bases (primed and unprimed), we apply the most innovative technology, without the assistance of third parties and with one main objective: to comply with the highest standards of regulation and product quality. We monitor the extrusion process with industrial rigor and craftsmanship. We manufacture ourshotshell cases with our own raw materials on the basis of the work carried out by ourR + D + iprofessionals, which allows us to have maximum control during the whole process. Furthermore, we comply with thehighest safety and quality standards.

All our primers are of the G-1000 209 class and enjoy a wide reputation among professional and amateur shooters for their consistency and sensitivity. Our primers benefit from the highest homogeneity rates of the explosive mixture which results in a safer, more stable product and guarantees a fully-proved regularity in the ignition of all primers. At MAXAM, we apply the latest innovations in the sector to equip our primers with the regularity, sensitivity and perfect ignition that characterize them. All our primers comply with the highest international standards while adapting to all types of needs, even the most demanding ones.

MAXAM is at the forefront of technological developments in sports cartridges and our wads are excellent proof of that. For their manufacture, we only use the best raw materials and the most innovative treatments in order to achieve excellent plasticity.
