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.

Crisis protection that fits in every wallet
When it comes to crisis protection, this small denomination in particular shows its full strength. The 0.5-gram bar is among the popular products for various emergency situations – at home as well as abroad. Small amounts of gold can easily be carried in a wallet while traveling without attracting attention, and are ready to serve as a recognized medium of exchange when it matters most. Gold has always offered protection against political and economic crises and creates security when confidence in paper money wavers.
Gold is real money – for over 6,000 years. It has never had a value of zero, because it possesses an intrinsic, physical value.
Inflation hedge and value preservation in small steps
As an inflation hedge, gold preserves your purchasing power, while fiat money can be multiplied at will by central banks. The supply of gold is scarce and limited – this contributes to its long-term value stability. In this way, the bar serves as a means of value preservation and is excellently suited to building up wealth step by step. Small denominations of gold and silver add up over the years to a considerable asset value and can also be sold flexibly and in small partial amounts.
Who the 0.5 g gold bar is suitable for
This bar is aimed at investors seeking an entry point into physical gold investment, as well as anyone wishing to pass on a genuine gold investment. Because even for a personal occasion such as a birthday, christening or wedding, you're not just giving a mere token gift here, but a lasting asset: minted fine gold, whose value is based on the gold price. The RFID-blocker card makes the handover especially appealing – yet the true substance remains the pure 999.9 gold.
