About Us
Always one step ahead!
Staying at the forefront with forward-thinking ideas, new technologies, and state-of-the-art equipment—this aptly describes the motivation of company founder Peter Henze. He launched his own business in 1993, marking the birth of what is now Henze Boron Nitride Products AG! Since then, the company has been dedicated to developing customized product solutions made from hexagonal boron nitride. And with great success! What began in the Henze family home 30 years ago is now an internationally active company.
For more than 10 years, Peter Henze’s sons, Christoph and Matthias Henze, have been running the family business as the second generation of owners. With a production area of approximately 3,500 square meters, Henze BNP covers the entire range of boron nitride products—from powder to finished sintered components.

The Boron Nitride Specialist
As a boron nitride specialist, Henze BNP enjoys a high level of trust among its customers. This is due, among other things, to its consistently high quality standards, reliable delivery times, many years of experience, and comprehensive expertise in boron nitride. Henze BNP responds quickly and flexibly to new market challenges and has consistently achieved steady growth.
Precision ceramic components made of sintered boron nitride, as well as high-performance suspensions, sprays, and lubricant additives, are used, for example, in high-temperature furnace construction, in PVD and plasma systems, in aluminum extrusion, and in metal casting. The various powder grades offer additional benefits as filler additives in release agents and lubricants or provide increased thermal conductivity in plastics.
