Heimerle + Meule · Pforzheim
Gold from the Golden City.
It began with the dust of the workshops.
Jewellery has been made in Pforzheim since the 18th century. Wherever there is filing, sawing and polishing, precious metal falls to the floor as fine dust and ends up in the sweepings.
The entrepreneur Julius Dittler founds a sweepings works, a “Kehretsanstalt”, to recover precious metal from production waste.
1845
This is the year the story of Heimerle + Meule begins. To this day, the date appears in the mark of the house.
Inside the works
From scrap to bar.
The scrap
Jewellery, coins, cutlery, dental gold and industrial residues: from these, the house recovers precious metal today.
The pour
Gold melts at 1,064 degrees Celsius, silver at 962 degrees. The melter pours the molten metal from the crucible into the mould.
The bar
At the end comes the finished bar, bearing its weight and fineness. According to the company, the fine metals used are produced in its own refinery.
A house that carries on.
1945
In ruins
On 23 February an air raid destroys Pforzheim’s town centre. The company’s building is also lost in the war. Afterwards, it makes a fresh start in the premises of a jewellery and watch factory.
1977
The Brötzinger Tal
The company moves out of the town centre to the Brötzinger Tal, a valley that had been filled in after the war, partly with the rubble of the old town. Its headquarters have been there ever since.
2010
Bars for investors

2014
Good Delivery
On 3 June the London Bullion Market Association admits the company to its Good Delivery List, the register of recognised gold refiners. It has remained on the list since that day.
Bar in a card
Gold you can give as a gift.
A small bar of fine gold, firmly set into a card the size of a credit card.
A gift that is not used up: for a birth, a wedding or simply as a thank-you.
On the bar

From dust came a name.
Made to last.
The idea of the sweepings works lives on, too: recovering and refining precious metal has been the heart of the house since its founding.

Why physical gold is the right choice
Gold is the world's oldest currency and has been a proven store of value for over 6,000 years. It has intrinsic value, has never been worth zero, and protects against the loss of purchasing power. As a scarce commodity with limited supply, it offers long-term value stability and solid inflation hedge, while fiat money can be expanded at will by central banks. It is no coincidence that these very central banks are among the largest gold holders in the world.
The small bar makes entry into physical gold investment especially easy: high liquidity, worldwide tradability, and resale at any time. Compared to a classic gold coin, the slim format scores with the handy FineCard and a low capital outlay – ideal for building up your holdings step by step. After a holding period of at least one year, the profit from resale is generally tax-free, and investment gold is exempt from VAT.
Small amounts of gold add up over the years to a considerable fortune – a start in life that endures and can be passed down from generation to generation.
