  • East Alton, IL · Mill Converter

    Hot rolling of copper and copper alloy flat product at the Buffalo, New York plant acquired from Aurubis on 30 August 2024. Recorded from the plant's own identification as a flat rolled products mill rather than from a named process step: flat rolled strip and sheet is by definition rolled, and this is a producing mill rather than a distributor. Held at medium for that reason.
