Our Processed Copper Operations
SDI LaFarga COPPERWORKS™ is a venture joining Steel Dynamics Inc., based in Fort Wayne, Indiana, and The LaFarga Group, based in Barcelona, Spain. LaFarga’s roots go back more than 200 years to the time of the Napoleonic Wars. Steel Dynamics was founded in 1993 and has become one of the largest and most diversified steel companies in America. COPPERWORKS is located in New Haven, Indiana.
Although Steel Dynamics and LaFarga have vastly different histories, they share the same goals: to provide the highest-quality products and unparalleled customer service, while being good stewards of the environment. In fact, the raw material COPPERWORKS uses to produce their Infinity™ copper (FRHC) rod and wire is mostly reclaimed electrical wiring and plumbing in a variety of ISRI grades and forms.

Infinity™ Copper Rod Process
COPPERWORKS uses state-of-the-art technology to produce Infinity copper rod and wire, which is 99.9% pure and meets ASTM B-49 standards. The Infinity process has a significantly lower impact on the environment because reclaimed copper is melted and refined to make new copper products. And because copper can be infinitely recycled without losing its essential physical properties, this process is highly sustainable and economical.
Elemental™ Copper Rod Process
With the latest shaft furnace technology in the industry and extensive rod production expertise, COPPERWORKS, through its Elemental process, is committed to producing the highest quality ETP rod and wire currently available in the market.

COPPERWORKS is unique in its approach to the copper rod and wire market. Its team provides an array of benefits that their competitors don’t or simply cannot: expert engineering support, singular focus on copper rod and wire, product choices, wire drawing services, hedging services, delivery options, and many more.
