History

In the 200 years since its founding, Nathan Trotter & Co., Inc. has evolved into the largest manufacturer of tin and tin alloys in North America. In addition to tin, the product offerings have grown to include over 20 metals, many of which are melted on-site to create various alloys and shapes. The company remains committed to preserving our legacy as the nation's oldest continuously-operated metals manufacturer.

The son of middle class Quaker parents in Colonial Philadelphia, Nathan Trotter was born into a family of craftsmen and entrepreneurs. His uncles and brothers were well-respected cabinetmakers, merchants, and bankers. Nathan founded his namesake metal-importing company on the banks of the Delaware River in 1789, providing tin to Colonial craftspeople who turned it into pewter. His attention to detail, courteous service, and dependability earned his company both business and respect. 

In the 200 years since its founding, Nathan Trotter & Co., Inc. has evolved into the largest manufacturer of tin and tin alloys in North America. Today the company remains committed to preserving our legacy as the oldest continuously-operated metals manufacturer in the US. In addition to our reputation for tin, we have become a leading source of lead alloys and other non-ferrous metals, with a growing metal recycling program and a steadfast tradition of exceptional customer service, industry-leading metallurgical expertise, and competitive pricing.

Our Present

Nathan Trotters 200-year history of service and reliability has made us a trusted manufacturer and distributor of metals.

We meet more than 1,000 different specifications yearly and are constantly adapting our equipment and developing new producer relationships to anticipate  and exceed  our customers expectations.
