We’re a team of problem solvers powered by family values on a mission to make the aluminum industry work for everyone. We buy, sell, trade, and process metals and alloys across more than twenty-eight countries.
Metal Exchange is the flagship of a global family of companies focused on aluminum and other nonferrous metals. Founded in 1974, we are privately held, headquartered in St. Louis, MO, and have offices throughout the U.S. and international offices in both Shanghai and Zurich.



Yet, beneath the serene surface lies a powerful engine of aspirational lifestyle branding. These videos are the modern successor to the mail-order catalog and the home economics textbook, but with an interactive, commercial twist. Entertainment is seamlessly woven with advertisement.

This has democratized entrepreneurship for a generation of young women, allowing them to build lucrative careers from their childhood bedrooms.

The implicit message can be troubling: that happiness and success are purchasable, found in the right matcha powder or the perfect vintage lamp.
