Overview on Rose Metal Industries: NEO Contract Manufacturing for Industry

Rose Metal Industries (RMI) is an over-110 year old, third-generation family-held metalworking business. We operate three facilities throughout northeast Ohio and manufacture a diverse range of industrial products.

Based on a strong heritage of skilled blacksmith forging, our forge shop provides steel mills and other metal processors with high-quality tongs, special tools and test specimen blanks.

Both build-to-print and custom-engineered products are produced in RMI’s fabrication facilities. The design and fabrication of heat and corrosion-resistant items is a specialty. RMI furnishes both robotic production welding and contract manufacturing services for our many customers.

Our end markets include primary and secondary metals, stamping, heavy truck, aircraft, solar energy, and health care products, as well as a variety of general industries. RMI also produces a line of standard ladles and skimmers which are used by foundries, smelters and die casters.
