Meticulously grooming another 10,000-pound #bronze sow in our Columbia, Pennsylvania plant. That's gonna be one big hunk of #metal, but the chemistry will (always) be spot on.

It's Monday! Meet Chris.⠀
⠀
Chris Greenfield is our VP, and for nearly 16 years has been a huge change driver and customer advocate. He’s an expert in all kinds of stuff, including the countries of origin of our diverse workforce.⠀

FM water bottle is jealous of the big wooden barrels that get to hold 55 gallons of whiskey ... that's way cooler than a few measly cups of water. Such is the dream of a piece of branded merch!

Did You Know?

Beginning in the early 16th century, European artists often painted on sheets of #copper, including some of the most famous painters of all time: Leonardo da Vinci, El Greco, Rembrandt. They found it to provide a smooth, durable surface that held the paint very well and allowed for marvelous effects. The practice is even regaining in popularity among today's artists.

It's Monday! Meet Victor.⠀
A second-gen foundryman, Victor followed his father on the furnaces in our Pennsylvania plant and is an absolutely awesome metal maker. A dad himself, he has two boys, two girls and two dogs—and five great lifelong friends that gather regularly for a game of poker or darts.

Zymurgy is a branch of chemistry concerning what process?
(hint: Happy Friday!)

The applications of #copper, and copper-based #alloys are everywhere in the modern economy. And demand is only going to continue.⠀
