American Galvanizing Company – Double Nickel Kettle

Press Release - January 2009

The new-year welcomes in new changes at American Galvanizing Company. While many of you were off enjoying the holiday season and ringing in the new-year, American Galvanizing Company was retrofitting the plant with a new larger tank to help accommodate our customers needs.

The staff at American Galvanizing Company worked around the clock starting on December 19, 2008 to meet an aggressive deadline of Jan 6, 2009. With our dedicated professionals at American Galvanizing Company, we pulled together to accomplish our goal. On January 7, 2009 our 1st dip in our 6-6 x 10-0x 55-0 long kettle took place and American Galvanizing Company was back in business.

The installation of this deeper kettle completes our latest expansion at the AGC plant which started in late 2007. The new AGC boasts an increase of 20 % more floor space-giving the operation over 60,000 square feet- as well as one of the longest and deepest galvanizing kettles on the East Coast. Dubbed The Double Nickel Kettle, for its overall length of 55 feet, this new, deeper (10-0) kettle will help service our customers who have large sized structures that otherwise would have had to be double dipped, but now can avoid the extra handling and extra cost.

If you are an existing customer or new to our site, don’t hesitate to contact us should you have any questions, need quotations, or simply would like to tour our facility. Someone from our talented staff would be happy to assist you and make 2009 a great year.

The Team at American Galvanizing Company.
