loveSilver

Silver has captured our imagination since the dawn of time. People have been crafting it into coins, jewellery and decorative ornaments for millennia. In present times, the demand for silver extends far beyond its lustrous beauty. Of all the metals, silver is one of the best conductors of electricity, and almost every modern electronic device and appliance relies on it.

Silver’s journey does not stop there. A love for silver extends to other industrial uses, medical and healthcare applications, the photographic industry and much more. The appetite for silver is continuously growing and along with it is our commitment to offering high-quality silver bullion of the highest purity.

Why buy silver

Thanks to its unique properties, historical standing and place in today’s world, many investors are turning to silver as a distinct asset class.

Whether you choose an Exchange-Traded-Fund (ETF) or bullion bar and coins, there are many ways to add silver to your portfolio.

Affordable

Historically traded at a lower price point than other precious metals.

Liquid Asset

Can be sold for cash and is traded in major global markets.

Attractive

Its decorative beauty and lustre make it one of the most popular metals for jewellery.

Indispensable

Finding a substitute with the same unique characteristics is nearly impossible.

Diverse

Over half of demand for silver originates from industrial applications.

Making the future possible. It’s highly conductive, resistant to oxidization and has an anti-microbial nature. The potential uses for silver in the energy and automotive industries, and in the medical sector are exciting.

Renewable Energy. Photovoltaic (PV) power is the leading source of green electricity today! Solar panels use silver to transfer the energy collected from the sun for immediate use or to batteries for later consumption.

Automotive. 60 million ounces of silver are used annually in motor vehicles. Every electrical connection in our modern vehicles relies on silver. As vehicles become more computerized, automated and electric, the demand for silver is projected to grow (Source 2022 World Silver Survey).

Silver nanoparticles (AgNps). We can’t see them, but small particles of silver surround us and the potential demand for AgNps is growing in many industries.
