In order to meet immediate and future customer needs, Tri-City Extrusion, Inc. (TCE) has launched a major expansion of extrusion operations in Bristol, Tennessee. Anchoring this expansion is the addition of a 12-inch, 3500-ton extrusion press, which will enable TCE to provide larger profiles, shapes and circle sizes up to 12-inch.

Additionally, value added services such as anodizing, powder paint, line marking and thermal barrier process will be made available to TCE customers. The expansion of the facilities will in no way impact current material flow on existing 6-inch and 8-inch extrusion presses, as the new press will be housed in a newly constructed building.
