Keystone Consolidated Industries, Inc. announced Monday that it has purchased all of the operating assets of CaluMetals. Keystone also increased the total committed credit facility amount from $80 million to $100 million to finance the CaluMetals acquisition.
Keystone's Peoria, Illinois facility expects to provide the majority of the
billet requirements of the acquired operations. The acquisition of CaluMetals allows Keystone to convert more of its current
billet production into higher-margin products and develop its vertical integration strategy.
