It`s Monday! Meet Kevin.⠀
⠀
Some people take their #carbonfootprint just a tad seriously—and we love it. Not only does his sorting expertise allow us to recycle a wide range of #brass and #bronze scrap to meet even the most demanding chemistry specifications, he even commutes to work by bike ... everyday. In Cleveland. Year round!

It`s Monday! Meet Kyle.⠀
⠀
Can you name a general manager who is as comfortable sawing logs on his property in Hot Springs as he is riding Alpe d’Huez? We can. Kyle Landrum. Whether on a tractor at his homestead, on a tow motor at Federal Metal, or straddling a carbon road bike frame in the Alps, Kyle always operates in high gear.

Excited to announce that #aluminum industry veteran Scott Woods has joined Federal Metal as lead buyer of aluminum copper radiators (ACRs) to supply our multiple processing facilities. His tremendous skill, experience, judgement and relationships will further strengthen our already-talented commercial team.
Mar 17

Huge news for Federal Metal today! In response to the growing demand for refined #copper and 1100 #aluminum, we are opening a new, much larger facility in North Little Rock, #Arkansas to expand our processing capacity of post-consumer aluminum copper radiators (ACRs) and production of our proprietary PSA®020 Aluminum and high-grade copper products.
Special thanks to the Arkansas Economic Development Commission for all their help in this venture.
