Silver - a metal with bright prospects

The use of silver for value storage and jewelry making has been common for centuries. Increasingly, it is also gaining significance for industrial manufacturing processes. One reason for this is that silver has excellent properties when it comes to conducting heat and electricity.

It has long been indispensable in the ever-growing electronics industry. Another reason is the antibacterial effect of silver, which makes it valuable for medical technology and other areas such as water treatment and the development of new impregnation techniques. Against this backdrop, industry experts see clear signals for a future increase in the price of silver.

Silver has good prospects of once again becoming what it has been more than once in the past: the "poor man's gold."
