Years of ExperienceRTM Global was established as the dedicated welding-materials subsidiary of CHEMIREX Co., Ltd., a Korea-based industrial materials specialist that has sourced and supplied industrial raw materials since 2003. Over more than 25 years, CHEMIREX has built a sourcing network spanning more than 20 countries and accumulated deep expertise across stainless steel, welding materials, chemical materials, mineral materials, and especially the processing of rutile sand.
RTM Global was established to bring this welding-materials expertise together into a single, dedicated business — enabling overseas welding electrode manufacturers to receive all the raw materials and materials they need for electrode production through one point of contact. In particular, having a base in China, the world’s largest producer of welding materials, is one of our greatest strengths, backed by more than 25 years of accumulated trading relationships, supply networks, and quality-control systems.
RTM Global connects the world’s welding-electrode manufacturing materials and resources with welding material manufacturers around the globe.
We source materials to clear specification requirements and coordinate reliable supply so manufacturers can focus on producing excellent welding materials.

A Message from Our CEO
Welcome to RTM Global. RTM Global was established to solve one persistent challenge that welding consumable manufacturers around the world have long faced: securing a wide range of welding materials — including minerals such as rutile sand, ferroalloys, metal powders, and chemical products — reliably, at consistent quality, at a reasonable price, and exactly when needed.
As the dedicated welding-materials subsidiary of CHEMIREX, built on a sourcing network developed over approximately 30 years, RTM Global started from a single belief: manufacturers should be able to focus solely on their core business of producing excellent welding materials, rather than searching for suppliers across continents. We take on that role of securing raw materials on their behalf.
Long-Term Partnership
RTM Global sources the wide range of raw materials needed for shielded metal arc welding electrodes (SMAW), flux-cored wire (FCW), MAG/MIG/TIG wire, and submerged arc welding (SAW) flux, and supplies them with the consistency and reliability that production sites require.
Sustainable Future
We aim to grow RTM Global into a long-term partner for welding material manufacturers overseas, rather than a one-time vendor. If you are reviewing new raw materials, looking to diversify your suppliers, or seeking a more reliable long-term sourcing partner, we welcome the opportunity to work together.
