Metalysis is a UK-based materials company that produces metal and alloy powders using a solid-state processing approach. Its products target critical sectors such as semiconductors, energy storage, defence, aerospace, space, and other advanced manufacturing industries. Originating from work at the University of Cambridge, the process is described as more environmentally friendly and efficient than conventional metal reduction methods, and it supports scaling from small, bespoke runs to larger industrial output. The company is based in Rotherham, South Yorkshire, and positions itself as a Western midstream asset in critical mineral supply chains, noting that much midstream processing takes place in China. Recent developments include a March 2026 collaboration with RHP Technology GmbH to advance aluminum-scandium powder processing through spark plasma sintering and hot pressing, producing discs to evaluate material properties.
