Triple-S Announces Acquisition of Marco Steel and Aluminum

Arbor Metals Inc. and Tube Supply LP have purchased the assets of Marco Steel and Aluminum Inc., a processor of carbon, alloy, and stainless steels, aluminum, and hot-rolled steel plate with operations in the southwestern US.

Arbor Metals, a division of service center Triple-S Steel, will now own and operate Marco’s assets in Lubbock, Texas, and Albuquerque, N.M.

Marco’s operations in Midland, Texas, will be owned and operated by Tube Supply, a joint venture between Triple-S and Sorensen Capital.

Triple-S is headquartered in Houston and operates more than 50 locations throughout the US, Canada, and Colombia.
