What does «murex» mean?
murex is a genus of medium to large sized predatory tropical sea snails. These are carnivorous marine gastropod molluscs in the family Muriciadae, commonly called «murexes» or «rock snails». While searching for a company name, we accidentally came across this word - and we just loved it. It was important to us to find a name for our newly founded company that is short and concise. And it had to be easy to pronounce in all the languages of our target markets.
Scope of Supply – from screws to barrels
Our core competence is the production of screws, barrels and grooved bushings for extruders and injection moulding machines. Our special know-how covers wear-protected screws for highly abrasive and corrosive applications, as well as the production of grooved bushings with special groove shapes (spiral grooves, conical grooves).
Thanks to the latest manufacturing technologies and multifunctional machinery, we are also able to produce small batches with very complex geometries and high quality requirements in a cost-efficient manner. Many years of experience of our employees in the application of heat and surface treatments ensures the high quality of our products.
