Hardware manufacturer Bommer Industries is selling its metal finishing plant near Gaffney, S.C. after announcing it was ceasing operation.
Bommer president Charlie Martin says it was determined in 2021 to discontinue making builders hardware supplies such as hinges, which meant they no longer needed the metal finishing operation located about 40 miles from their manufacturing plant.
“It has been operating for 35 years as a captive in house operation finishing builders’ hardware items –primarily hinges--to BHMA industry finish standards,” Martin says. “It has a stellar environmental record.”
