Congrats to @zanehengsperger and @noxmetals on their $11.5M seed!
They're building the industrial metal supply infrastructure America needs to scale domestic manufacturing. Just seven months after launching production, they've already shipped metal to hundreds of American factories.
This summer they're revitalizing a WW2-era, 30,000 sq ft factory in Detroit.
