Reshoring is the trend of bringing manufacturing jobs from overseas back to its local origin – here, the United States. The COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted disrupted supply chains – from logistics – closed borders, idling ships – and capacity concerns to keep production on schedule to do the job or meet orders.
About 1 in 2 North American manufacturers (47%) are now looking to source domestically due to the disruptions caused by the recent coronavirus outbreak. [1]
Our Antimicrobial Door Handles Spotlighted in May 2020 INCAST Issue “Copper Kills Coronavirus”
INCAST magazine was interested in our post about how “Copper Kills Coronavirus” and featured our antimicrobial door handles on their front cover and in a two-page spread in their May 2020 issue.
This Earth Day the theme is Climate Change. Investment castings help to make the world a cleaner place by reducing material usage, waste, time and costs.
Thank you INCAST Magazine for featuring us in your April 2020 issue “Coronavirus Pandemic: Industry Reactions to Global Virus”
Copper reduces the life of Coronavirus. FBPC has the capabilities and expertise to cast an antimicrobial, lead free metal, bronze alloy CDA 87850, as door handles, knobs, brackets, fixtures and more to help mitigate the spread of COVID-19 and flatten the curve. Public areas, hospitals and medical facilities can benefit now.

The doors may be standing still right now – but one day they will swing open again. Proud to have worked with Ellison Bronze to keep visitors coming in and out of The Shed in NYC. Franklin Bronze supplied all internal door hardware components for the 16 doors.
Franklin Bronze Precision Components employees have come together and very generously donated non-perishable food items to Community Services for distribution to local families during this time of crisis.
