Continuous improvement is at the heart of Three D Metals’ operations. Whether it’s improving workplace safety, reducing energy consumption or investing in advanced machinery, each initiative reflects a commitment to efficiency and innovation. These efforts aren’t just about staying competitive — they’re about fostering a culture that values sustainability and employee well-being.
In this blog, we’ll explore some of the key projects driving our progress and how they contribute to our ongoing mission of delivering quality and reliability to customers.
Building a Sustainable Future
Sustainability goes beyond recycling scrap metal. Employees actively recycle aluminum cans and plastic bottles, fostering a culture of environmental responsibility. Additionally, upgrading to automatic light switches is a simple yet effective way to reduce energy consumption, aligning with broader goals for greener operations.
Investing in Cutting-Edge Technology
Capital expenditure projects fuel our ability to provide high-quality products. We’re continually upgrading and purchasing new machinery across our locations in Mexico, Birmingham and St. Louis. These investments enable us to maintain top-tier service for our customers while exploring innovative ways to streamline production.
Prioritizing Workplace Safety
Safety isn’t just a checkbox; it’s a core value. Monthly training sessions focus on vital topics like PPE usage, hazard communication and “Lockout/Tagout” procedures. Additionally, with several employees certified in First Aid, CPR and AED, we ensure a safer workplace for everyone. These efforts reflect a comprehensive approach to fostering a safe and supportive work environment.
Empowering Leadership and Growth
Strategic planning helps us stay ahead in competitive markets, but our growth goes beyond numbers. We invest in leadership training with special attention to empowering women. As members of the AWMI Cleveland and Alabama Chapters, we’re proud to honor our founder, Donna Dickens, whose leadership continues to inspire.
These initiatives reflect our mission to consistently improve not just for our operations but for the benefit of our customers and communities. We remain committed to delivering reliability, efficiency and sustainability every step of the way.
