IMC’s roots in dirt floor foundries have blossomed into worldwide recognition in the anode and rod production industry. Dedicated management teams led the company expansion to a new 160,000 square foot copper and brass mill in the 1990s. Today, the site is an industry beacon, operating as a state-of-the-art, technologically-advanced and environmentally-friendly facility, with plenty of space for future expansion.
The customer is always the ultimate focus, which is why IMC’s manufacturing process is engineered to produce hot-rolled and fine-grained copper, which is preferred in end-user processes. Each step of IMC’s high-speed production is closely and continuously computer-monitored, from analytical testing of raw feed, through alloying and at final quality certification. In this way strict customer specifications are assured.
More than 50% of our product volume is sold in 40+ countries, primarily utilizing a global network of agents and distributors.
