Three Firms Combine to Form F3 Metalworx

This new company competes in the retail display, light industrial and home storage, precision fabrication and powder coating markets.

F3 Metalworx (North East, PA) has been formed through the combining of three businesses: Wire Weld Shelving Systems and Store Fixtures (Erie, PA), Arvite Precision Sheet Metal Manufacturing (Erie, PA) and Cost Effective Coatings, Inc. (North East, PA). The new company will continue to focus on their core competencies with three business units:

  • Fixtures – Wire Weld Shelving Systems and Store Fixtures has been providing beautiful, durable, market-leading storage systems for more than 35 years. The versatile nature of their standard shelving components allows users to develop custom retail display, light industrial, and home storage solutions appropriate for any market.
  • Sheet Metal Fabrication – Arvite Precision Sheet Metal Manufacturing has established a reputation for fabricating high quality, tight tolerance sheet metal products for a wide variety of industries. They excel in manufacturing light gauge steel, stainless steel and aluminum products in quantities from prototype to production.
  • Finishing, Powder Coating and Assembly – Cost Effective Coatings is a premier powder coating provider for a range of industrial and commercial products. In order to be a complete finishing resource, they have multiple coating lines to handle high and low volume runs, as well as offering assembly and packaging services.

“The driving force behind this venture lies in the capabilities and synergies of our three businesses and the ability to now offer our customers and prospects a one-stop resource for a wide range of products and services,” stated Jason Paglia, the president and chief executive officer of F3 Metalworx, which brings more than 80 years of combined experience to market. “There are no changes in management or personnel as part of the forming of this new company.”
