Copperweld's Legacy: 110 Years of Innovation in Bimetallic Solutions
Celebrating 110 Years of Copperweld
In 2025, Copperweld proudly announces its remarkable milestone—110 years of innovation and excellence in bimetallic solutions. Since its founding in 1915 in Rankin, Pennsylvania, the company has paved the way for advanced engineered wire solutions in electrical infrastructure. With a steadfast commitment to quality, Copperweld has built a legacy that exemplifies a dedication to quality and performance.
A History Rooted in Innovation
From the beginning, innovation has been an integral part of Copperweld's identity. Initially focusing on the creation of Copper-Clad Steel (CCS), a groundbreaking material that merges the strength of steel with the conductivity of copper, the company established a foundation for solving complex engineering problems. The introduction of the first copper-clad ground rod in 1918 created a benchmark that is still the industry standard over a century later.
Throughout the years, Copperweld has adapted its offerings to meet the evolving demands of utilities, telecommunications, and construction industries. Products such as ArcAngel™, Stingray™, and Sunray™ demonstrate the company's ongoing efforts to address practical challenges with reliable and effective solutions.
Addressing Modern Needs with CCA Technology
Among the latest advancements is the Copperweld® Copper-Clad Aluminum (CCA) Building Wire, a product representing a significant response to current market needs. As the construction industry faces rising copper prices and increasing sustainability demands, the versatility of CCA wire has become invaluable. It combines copper’s conductivity with aluminum’s lightweight efficiency, offering a compliant and cost-effective solution for branch-circuit wiring in both residential and commercial settings.
Builders and contractors are turning to CCA building wire not only for its performance but also as a strategic approach to managing material expenses and ensuring long-term availability. Copperweld continues to engineer products that enhance the value of copper while upholding the highest standards of reliability and regulatory compliance. This approach reflects the company's ongoing commitment to innovative engineering and responsive problem-solving.
