About MD Metals →Read the original MD Metals quality certificate, policy and company statements.
MD Metals was founded in 1990 by Michael Dallek, who brought decades in the steel and scrap industry to a simple idea: build the heavy gauge, narrow slit capability that most companies can't offer. That focus, plus a small team that treats every toll job with the same urgency as a steel sale, is still how we run the floor today.
