It's Monday! Meet Ira.⠀
⠀
Ingenuity. Attention to details. Good old-fashioned hard work. Everything that's required to make world-class #brass and #bronze #ingot. And all attributes in the core of this man's DNA. Giving only 99% isn't good enough for Ira, and we appreciate his dedication every single day.

Great document from the Copper Development Association explaining just how powerful the role of #copper is in driving the boom in electric vehicle production.⠀

Secretly we always wish it were possible for the score to be love-29.

Anyone? Anyone?

We never settle for anything less than perfection, and rely on a broad range of technology and expertise to ensure everything is exactly what it is supposed to be.

Ever wonder how we transform millions of pounds of scrap metal into millions of pounds of #brass and #bronze ingot? Just another day at the office!⠀

It’s Monday! Meet Ariel.⠀
⠀
During the week, she's been interning this summer with our maintenance crew. But on the weekends she drives like her hair's on fire, racing with her crew in off-road competitions all over the country. No matter how much hardware she puts in her trophy case (and it’s a lot) she’s a great student and dedicated team member.

Network, learn, and socialize at the 2022 NFFS Industry Executive Conference? Yes please! We're looking forward to it ... always come home energized and full of new insight. And if that's not enough, well, Florida in October!⠀

Always something really interesting to see around here.

Did You Know?

The body of the 1921 Rolls Royce Silver Ghost is completely #copper. Nearly all of the car's engine hardware is solid brass. The Franklin Mint offers a precision scale model. The National Transportation Museum in Reno, Nevada, displays the classic restored Rolls.

Everyone continues to predict that global demand for #copper will literally double in the next 12-15 years. There is zero chance to meet all that demand by mining new metal alone. #Recycling metal is more important now than ever if we're going to meet our #cleanenergy goals.⠀

It's Monday! Meet Warren.⠀
⠀
Warren Plesmid oversees special projects, engineering, maintenance, environmental and safety issues. All tall orders for sure, because responsibly recycling tens of millions of pounds of #copper, #brass, and #aluminum scrap each year requires discipline and brains. You can find both in reserve in this guy's office.

Lookin' real good.

(we still really love our new look)
