Who We Are
Since 1915, CMC has built a legacy as a global leader in sustainable recycling, manufacturing and fabrication of steel and construction products. With headquarters in Irving, Texas, the workforce of CMC includes 12,483 employees working in over 212 facilities located across the United States (U.S.), the United Kingdom (U.K.), Asia and Central Europe.
CMC is a publicly traded company (NYSE: CMC) and is widely recognized for our commitment to professionalism, innovation and customer service. Our goal is to be the first-choice supplier in all our markets.
We play an integral role in infrastructure development, which has been further reinforced with our 2022 acquisition of Tensar. The products we create provide the backbone of buildings, highways, bridges and other structures all over the world. The markets we serve include infrastructure, commercial and residential construction, the energy industry, manufacturing and agriculture.
A Mission Continued
Sustainable practices are embedded in our business model and remain central to our company mission. We started as a recycling business—using resources efficiently is in our DNA. CMC’s reputation for innovation stretches back through our past and forms the foundation of our future.
Over the last 100 years, we’ve prioritized investing in new technologies and processes that improve quality while enhancing resource efficiency and utilization. Our vertically integrated business model revolutionized steel industry operations. We collect scrap metal from our local recycling centers to transport to our steel mini and micro mills, where it’s melted, cast and rolled into steel shapes and later fabricated into finished products for the building, manufacturing and infrastructure markets we serve.
Our demonstrated commitment to resource efficiency is second to none. All of our steel-producing facilities use energy-saving electric arc furnace (EAF) technology, a technology whose use we pioneered and that significantly reduces the energy required to produce steel when compared to the traditional integrated steelmaking technology utilized by the majority of global steel makers today. EAF technology supports the electrification of steelmaking, thereby opening opportunities for greater use of renewable energies in our processes. Our differentiated business model and focus on technological efficiencies enable us to reduce our costs and risks, which in turn allows us to develop and produce the sustainable products that our society needs to build and thrive.
