It`s Monday! Meet Peter.⠀
⠀
Leading a 111-year-old family #manufacturing business is no small task! There is a reason so few exist—because relying on your past does not guarantee future success. The secret is forward-looking vision, innovation and growth, and no one does it better than our President and CEO Peter Nagusky.

Copper Today: Sustainability⠀
⠀
Recycled #copper has exactly the same quality and benefits of newly mined copper, yet it requires as much as 90 percent LESS energy to produce. And it experiences no degradation, which means it can be recycled indefinitely.⠀

It`s Monday! Meet Scotty.⠀
⠀
For more than 20 years, we`ve benefitted immensely from having Scotty on our maintenance team. But he`s always so on-the-go out in the shop making things happen that we can`t seem to ever catch up!⠀
⠀
Truthfully, we don`t know where we`d be without him.

A car contains an enormous amount, and a wide variety, of various raw materials. Today, many of them are reclaimed through the #recycling process. This great video from @we_are_rema shows just how many of your everyday objects may end up in your next new car. #greeneconomy #everydayisearthday

It`s been one year of operations at FedMet Arkansas, and we`re incredibly proud of our team`s #safety record over this past year: ZERO recordables; ZERO days lost time. Last week we celebrated with a team lunch. This is a real testament to the character of each and every person who works here.
