Cera-Met is a supplier of aluminum investment casting. They supply key components to many companies as well as defense contracts with military. Fire in the foundry devastated this facility. The intense heat buckled the ceiling bar joist, damaged the exterior walls, blew out windows spreading smoke, soot, and water throughout the 50,000 SF facility. The facility was structurally compromised. All the electrical panels were flooded with water. Plumbing lines, gas lines, and other mechanicals needed replacement. The facility was running at full capacity in 10 months with an improved facility.
