Atlas Bronze is one of the few brass, copper, and bronze material suppliers located in the Northeast. We supply brass, bronze, and copper products from our warehouse in Trenton, New Jersey, and a few other depots throughout the country. Most people know Trenton as either the Capital of New Jersey or from the Lower Trenton bridge sign that boasts "Trenton Makes, the World Takes."
Tom Smith started Atlas Bronze in January 1994. Previously, Tom worked at Federal Bronze Products, and during that time, he not only expanded his knowledge of Bronze but also learned from an industry master, Steve Stefiuk. After leaving Federal Bronze, it was only a short time later that Tom's entrepreneurial spirit would lead him to start his own company, Atlas Bronze. When Atlas Bronze was created, it was given the Corporate name Maranatha Now (which means "Come Lord Jesus Now"). Because the word Maranatha is a bit difficult to pronounce, it was decided that we would do business as Atlas Bronze.
Atlas Bronze has since established itself as a leading supplier and distributor of bronze castings,
brass,copper, iron, SAE 863 sintered iron,
self-lubricated bushings, and Wearplate in the United States. It was his goal to provide the service of a small business with the low pricing of the "big guys." Continually striving for perfection, the company's highly skilled and professional sales staff moves forward to that end, providing quality material at competitive prices.
