A Strategic Acquisition with Direct Benefits for Customers

Jade Steel Group doesn’t believe in growth for growth's sake. This strategic acquisition was carefully chosen and exhaustively vetted as the right move for our customers, part of our long-term strategy of diversification and providing enhanced product offerings.

Precision Kidd will be joining Jade Steel Group’s family of companies which already include Jade Sterling Steel, Clark Cold Drawn, and JSG Precision. The acquisition was made in partnership with Standard Horse Nail Company, LLC, which will help improve efficiency, product quality, and overall customer satisfaction as Precision Kidd looks to continuously innovate and deliver superior products in response to constantly evolving market demands.

We look forward to leveraging PK Steel’s expertise and technology to deliver key benefits including:

  1. Expanded Manufacturing Capabilities: PK Steel’s state-of-the-art cold-drawn steel bar wire processes will allow Jade Steel Group to offer a wider range of high-quality steel solutions than ever, with a particular focus on precision value-added services.

  2. In-Depth Expertise + Advanced Technology: PK Steel’s team is incredibly knowledgeable, and our teams are already exploring how our integrated group can leverage advanced technologies to spur continued innovation and process improvements.

  3. A Stronger Supply Chain: by increasing our overall production capacity and operational efficiency, this acquisition will directly enable a more robust, reliable, and responsive supply chain capable of keeping up with growing customer demand.

Most importantly, both Jade Steel Group and Precision Kidd Steel share a core cultural commitment to quality and customer satisfaction. The capabilities outlined above will give us more resources than ever as we work to deliver the highest possible standards for our customers.

Next Steps: What Changes for Jade Steel Group Customers?

As we work to integrate PK Steel, our utmost focus remains on providing a shameless experience for our customers, including uninterrupted service and support. All current points of contact within Jade Steel Group, specifically Jade Sterling Steel, will remain the same. There will be no immediate changes to existing agreements or terms of service.

We believe the addition of PK Steel is a foundation that will open up new possibilities for years to come, and we look forward to collaborating with our customers to find new opportunities for growth and partnership.
