Major Metals Corporation

In 1964, Buddy Sollish became the second generation family owner to lead the business. Buddy expanded Major Metals capabilities by forging relationships with smelters, refiners and mills. Core commodities serviced by Major Metals
include aluminum, brass, carbide, copper, lead, nickel, stainless steel, tool steel, tin, vacuum alloy and zinc. Typical material forms serviced include premium metal alloys used in manufactured products or in the manufacturing process.
