Schunk Kohlenstofftechnik GmbH

Schunk Carbon Technology is providing high-performance components from carbon, graphite, ceramic matrix composites (CMCs like C/C and SiC/SiC) as well as ceramic-based materials engineered for extreme temperatures, thermal shocks, and demanding operating environments. The company has decades of expertise in manufacturing specialty graphite components, insulation systems, and advanced fiber composites that are directly relevant to plasma-facing components, high-temperature test facilities, and fusion-related process equipment.Our capabilities in high-purity graphite processing, precision machining, and near-net-shape manufacturing can support the development of fusion reactor components where dimensional stability, thermal stability and conductivity, radiation resistance and low contamination are critical requirements.The company’s established presence in high-tech sectors such as semiconductor, energy, aerospace, and research infrastructure provides a strong industrial foundation for scaling fusion-material solutions from laboratory development to serial production.As Germany moves toward commercial fusion deployment, Schunk Carbon Technology is well positioned to contribute critical high-performance materials and engineered components that enhance reactor reliability, efficiency, and lifetime while supporting a domestic fusion supply chain.
