The new company will keep the PNW identity as well as maintain all current management personnel positions. The company’s four feeder yard locations in Oregon include Clackamas, Gresham, Hermiston and a shredding facility in Portland. PNW’s ferrous bulk export facility, the company’s fifth location, is based in Longview. The company says the new organizational structure will allow for further efficiencies in its day-to-day operations.
In August 2013, PNW was formed by a partnership between the scrap metal companies R.S. Davis Recycling and Rivergate Scrap Metals to provide the direct export of ferrous scrap from Washington’s Port of Longview to steel mills in Korea. PNW had purchased a 37-acre site at Longview’s Mint Farm Industrial Park specifically for exporting the ferrous scrap.
PNW purchases ferrous and nonferrous metals from industrial/commercial accounts and the public at all locations.
