Fort Wayne Metals, which provides components for both medical and non-medical critical applications, including aerospace and defense, industrial, and resistance wire industries, will expand with the acquisition of G&S Titanium and operate under the name G&S Bar and Wire, LLC.

“G&S is helping us increase our footprint even further, which will allow us to serve our customers better – for example by providing them with larger diameter materials,” said Scott Glaze, Chairman and CEO of Fort Wayne Metals.

The G&S operation in Wooster, Ohio, will remain in its current facilities. Fort Wayne Metals is headquartered in Fort Wayne, Indiana, and has facilities in Columbia City, Indiana, and Castlebar, Ireland.

Toward the end of 2017, Fort Wayne Metals announced plans to expand operations in Indiana, to include heat treatment capabilities. Read more here: “Heat Treat Operations Included in Medical Devices Manufacturer Expansion”
