- In the year of 2000 my father was considering the opportunity to acquire a company which he had previously owned. A company I was always interested in being a part of. That Company was National Aluminum Brass Foundry, Inc. The foundry was built in 1921 and had serviced a multitude of markets during it's existence. It was primarily known for producing copper and yellow brass battery terminals for the automotive, marine, heavy equipment and military with the highest quality terminal available in the market and was primarily the sole producer domestically having around 95% of the market share.The company began to lose ground in the 70's to other types of battery terminals made of lesser quality materials and other forms of manufacture such as lead terminals, steel stampings and such. With this available capacity in the manufacturing facility I was told to conduct research to evaluate if we could invent and produce our own product line for a larger market. Domestically, there are only a handful of manufacturers that produce similiar items at a higher price. This was my motivation for inventing Bear Creek Bronze, which now consists of more than 950 stock numbers of solid cast metal tile, cabinet hardware, switch and outlet covers, plaques as well as offering the custom capabilities of reproducing corporate logos on solid cast brass, bronze, copper, white bronze and aluminum items such as tile, signage, key chains, necklaces, or other decorative and fuctional items.
Specialties:Working knowledge of non ferrous sand casting principles, metallurgy, building trades, flooring, mechanical, electrical, plumbing, wood working, metal working, machining and welding.
