In the 1940's, a company then known as Pittsburgh Metallurgical, began business as a producer of large-volume commodity ferroalloys for the steel industry. In the early 1980's, when imports started undercutting domestic prices, the company decided that it was time to convert its product line to higher value added specialty ferrosilicons and magnesium ferrosilicon products. With this new direction and a new name, CC Metals and Alloys, LLC. began to establish itself as a quality supplier of specialty ferroalloys to the steel and foundry industries.
