Our new $17.6 million recycling facility in North Little Rock has officially begun operations. Rebranded as FedMet, the state-of-the-art facility will recycle post-consumer ACRs to address rising domestic demand for copper and aluminum.
"The real difference at Federal Metal is our commitment to innovation and growth. We’ve known that relying on our past is no way to ensure our future. This value is imbued in every member of the Federal Metal team."
This week we celebrate the one-year anniversary of operations at FedMet Arkansas. Not only are they leading the charge to provide #recycled material solutions for the #aluminum and #copper industry, but they are doing so with a perfect safety record. Congratulations to our team on the ground, and thank you to our valued suppliers and customers!
Its Monday! Meet Ben.⠀ ⠀ One can learn a lot about one`s colleagues by how they spend time away from work. This guy has achieved an orange sash in Kuntao and Silat, ancient forms of kung fu requiring immense focus and discipline. We tend to give him a wide berth around the foundry! For real though, he`s truly a great team player and dedicated melter.
When exposed to flame, #copper compounds burn green. When heated, the it`s electrons gain energy and move to higher energy levels. As the electrons return to their original, lower energy levels, they release energy in the form of light. What is the name of this phenomenon?
To maintain our standard of living, the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) estimates each person in the United States consumes roughly 12 pounds of #copper per year, which is more than 150,000,000 #ingots in total. At one ingot PER SECOND, that would take almost five years to produce!
Feeling unappreciated in your current #job? Come join our team and get paid to work hard AND have fun! The Federal Metal family is why we`re one of the best places to work in Northeast Ohio.
It’s Monday! Meet Terri.⠀ ⠀ For 18 years, Terri Kelsey has been a key driver behind our growth and success. Our customers benefit from her experience, hard work and ethical approach to business. We benefit from having her keep Mike Buyarski on the strait and narrow!
Copper Today: Strength⠀ ⠀ The durability and aesthetic of #copper make it ideal for use in jewelry and coinage. Did you know that 18K gold is actually 10 percent copper?⠀ #cleantech #greeneconomy #earthweek⠀ ⠀ infographic credit to: Trilogy Metals and @visualcap⠀
