National Bronze & Metals, Inc

Over the past 30 years, NBM Metals has experienced tremendous growth and earned a worldwide reputation as an industry leader. We maintain huge inventories of brass, bronze, and specialty copper alloys. Our production and inventories consists of tubes, rounds, hollows, rectangles, squares, hexagons, wires, and made-to-order shapes for customer specific applications. We are the leading USA alloy manufacturer and distributor of over one hundred different grades of copper alloys in excess of 5000 metric tons.

NBM Metals has undertaken several large expansion programs over the last 10 years, including our newly commissioned state-of-the-art foundry in Lorain, Ohio. This foundry is now considered the top producing continuous cast foundry in the United States. We have expanded into Europe and opened a warehouse operation in Toulon France, giving NBM Metals a truly global reach. We foresee even more growth opportunities in the near-term as we continue to add and improve upon our existing services to serve our customers with greater efficiency.

NBM Metals’ corporate headquarters and main distribution center (founded in 1983) is centrally located in Houston, Texas. NBM Metals has a long family heritage in the manufacture of extruded brasses and wrought bronzes. We have direct familial ties to the largest brass and bronze extrusion mill in South Africa. Over the past 30 years we have experienced tremendous growth and earned a worldwide reputation for maintaining huge inventories of brass, bronze, and specialty copper alloys. We inventory over one hundred different grades of copper alloys well in excess of 10 million pounds. Our inventories are built and designed with our customers in mind.

Our new state-of-the art foundry in Lorain, Ohio is one of the top-producing, continuous cast foundries in the United States. This facility utilizes both vertical and horizontal casting processes to manufacture our very broad range of continuous cast copper alloys. Our production consists of bars in rounds, hollows, rectangles, squares, hex, and made-to-order shapes for customer specific applications. NBM Metals also maintains inventories with a substantial size range of centrifugal cast bronze bars in both high leaded tin bronze and aluminum bronze bars. Bars up to thirty inches in diameter are readily available for next day shipment to accommodate the most urgent of breakdowns and repair work. We also rough machine, warehouse, and ship material to our customers from this location, both nationally and internationally. In 2008, NBM Metals Europe was established in Toulon, France. Establishing operations in southern France takes advantage of the natural strategic crossroads of the area. The location provides travel by road throughout Europe, as well as easy accessibility for NBM Metals Europe shipments by sea. Both imports from suppliers and outgoing customer deliveries throughout the Mediterranean are easily serviced. The area itself has a strong industrial foundation in aerospace, petrochemical, and naval industries, providing an immediate supply source to the surrounding businesses.
