It`s Monday! Meet Ian.⠀
⠀
In 2009, Ian featured on a list of America’s best high school baseball players. There are a number of notable names on that list: Mike Trout, Nolan Arenado, and Bryce Harper to name a few, but only one went on to lead The Federal Metal Company’s Environmental Health and Safety initiatives. That’s just one of the reasons Ian is so awesome.⠀

A fun perspective seeing these depreciation documents we found from 1961! This is pre-spreadsheet era people ... yes, numbers used to be written down on special columned paper. Crazy, isn`t it?
And yes, Card, Palmer, Sibbison & Co. is also still around, having served Northern Ohio customers now more than 100 years.

It`s Monday! Meet Chase.⠀
⠀
His mastery of our sorting process at FedMet quickly earned him a well-deserved supervisor role, providing keen oversight to ensure our aluminum blocks exceed industry standards. When he’s not getting the best metal from operations, Chase enjoys catching the best fish from our area lakes and rivers. We`re thankful for Chase`s drive and dedication to quality at every turn!

About 5300 years ago #copper and #tin were smelted into the first #alloy, kicking off the Bronze Age and revolutionizing the way humans lived.
About 20 minutes ago we started pouring another 52,000 pounds of it.

Of all the #copper used by mills, #ingot makers, foundries, powder plants and other industries, nearly three-fourths (72%) comes from recycled copper scrap. At Federal Metal, our #recycled content is 99.99%. Seriously, it`s so rare when we see newly mined copper that it`s almost a novelty!

It`s Monday! Meet Caleb.⠀
⠀
Newly engaged father of two, he`s FedMet`s most senior employee. He loves to hunt, fish and ride his ATV, but he often brings in a large home-cooked meal to share with the FedMet team too. A man of many talents! His title might be maintenance technician, but Caleb is really our #1 problem solver.

Pretty much goes out as fast as we can make it, but most of our #brass and #bronze #ingot gets to spend at least a few nights at the shipping dock party!
