Family owned and operated since 1943, Solomon Metals based in Lynn, MA is one of the region’s largest independent recycled materials company. Solomon works with a wide variety of manufacturing companies, construction and demo firms, and even independent scrap metal collectors from around the Northeast. From medical devices and defense to tool making and data centers, Solomon works aggressively with suppliers large and small by paying competitive rates and coaching driver’s on what the market is doing. We carefully collect, sort, and send for recycling nonferrous metals once destined for the scrap heap. Solomon Metals, and other forward looking companies in the materials recycling industry play, an integral part in collecting metals that are sent to smelting companies for recycling and then remanufactured as cabling, stock, and critical components. Once referred to as scrap, the benefits to repurposing brass, copper and zinc significancy improves access to metals supplies, reduces some of the demand triggered by inflationary costs, and recycling has a direct and positive impact on the environment in which we all work.

History Highlights
In 1943, WWII put the American economy on a wartime footing with tremendous demand for manufacturers to turn out ships, tanks, uniforms, helmets, and all manner of other materiel. Demand for metal of all types was in demand so to help the war effort and create jobs for his family, Solomon Metals was started by Isadore Solomon in Chelsea, Massachusetts.
After a devastating fire in Chelsea, MA 1973 that displaced so many small companies, Solomon Metals was relocated to a modern processing facility in Lynn, Massachusetts by Mickey Solomon, who, at the time, had operating the business for over 30 years.
Third generation, Steve Solomon, now runs the company with a group of industry veterans and professionals that have built Solomon Metals into one of the leading non-ferrous metal wholesalers, brokers and processors in New England and across the entire Northeast region.
