Mechanical Performance
Magnesium drives the strength and stiffness of the 5xxx and 6xxx aluminum families used across automotive body sheet, structural extrusions, and industrial applications.
— Division One · Primary Focus
Domestic magnesium processing at industrial scale.
Trinity is one of the largest processors of magnesium scrap in North America — supplying a critical input into aluminum production. Continuous operation since 2001, under the Trinity name since 2008, with the same leadership since inception.

— What We Do
Sourcing, processing, and conversion of magnesium scrap into consistent, specification-grade product.
Trinity specializes in the sourcing, processing, and conversion of a wide range of magnesium scrap into consistent, specification-grade material used in aluminum alloying and other metallurgical applications. Our operations are designed to handle complex, variable, and industrial-grade inputs at scale while delivering reliable, repeatable output aligned with customer requirements. The business is privately held, well-capitalized, and run with a long-term, relationship-driven posture.
— Role of Magnesium in Aluminum
A critical input into aluminum production.
Magnesium is one of the most important alloying elements in aluminum. Across rolled, extruded, and cast aluminum products, magnesium imparts the strength, formability, weldability, and corrosion resistance that downstream end markets require — and consistency of supply is what allows mills to hold their alloy chemistry on every heat.
Forming & Welding
Magnesium-bearing alloys are central to the rolled and welded products that fabricators rely on across transportation and infrastructure manufacturing.
Corrosion Resistance
Magnesium content underpins the corrosion resistance of marine, packaging, and exterior aluminum products serving long-life industrial applications.
— End Markets Served
Where Trinity's magnesium ends up.
Through our customers in the aluminum value chain, Trinity's magnesium units flow into a broad set of strategically important end markets.
Automotive
Body sheet, structural extrusions, and cast components for both internal-combustion and electrified vehicle platforms.
Aerospace
High-performance aluminum alloys used across airframe, structural, and component applications.
Defense
Lightweight, high-strength aluminum systems and components for defense platforms — supported by domestic supply.
Packaging
Beverage and food can sheet — one of the highest-volume rolled aluminum products, where magnesium chemistry is central.
Construction & Industrial
Architectural extrusions, transportation infrastructure, and industrial fabrication.
Other Metallurgical Applications
Specialized downstream operators with magnesium requirements outside primary aluminum alloying.
— Consistency & Quality
Repeatable output. Specification-aligned. Heat after heat.
Aluminum producers cannot run an alloy program on variable inputs. Trinity is built around delivering material that meets the same specification every shipment — supported by independently certified management systems, a patented processing system, and an in-house laboratory that certifies every load against customer requirements.
Patented Processing System
Multiple U.S. patents (with Canadian patents in process) cover Trinity's proprietary magnesium processing technology — engineered for repeatability at industrial scale.
In-House Laboratory
Fully equipped to certify incoming and outgoing material against customer specifications — every shipment, with documentation.
ISO 9001 · 14001 · 45001
Independently audited quality, environmental, and occupational health & safety management systems — the discipline behind consistent output.
— Our Role in the Supply Chain
A reliable U.S. source of magnesium feedstock.
The U.S. domestic magnesium supply base is constrained. Trinity sits between scrap generators and the aluminum value chain — converting industrial, post-consumer, and off-spec magnesium into specification-grade material that integrated producers, regional processors, and specialized downstream operators can rely on.
Integrated Producers
Large, vertically integrated aluminum producers with primary and secondary operations. Served through established supply programs.
Regional Processors
Regional aluminum processors and alloy houses that rely on specification-aligned magnesium units for their heats.
Downstream Specialists
Specialized downstream operators with precise input requirements — served through tailored packaging and delivery formats.
Trinity is structured to support consistent, high-volume supply — and welcomes direct counterparty discussions with buyers at any tier.
— Materials We Source
Magnesium scrap, in the forms we see in the market.
We source actively — directly from counterparties across the value chain. The platform is built to accept material in varying conditions and deliver output aligned to customer specifications. New sourcing relationships are welcomed.
Industrial & Post-Consumer
Industrial scrap · post-consumer magnesium · obsolete & end-of-life material.
Off-Spec & Secondary
Off-spec magnesium units · secondary magnesium · alloy ingot (specification-grade and off-spec).
Mixed & Complex
Die cast scrap · mixed magnesium streams · complex industrial inputs.
— Infrastructure & Standards
Purpose-built. Independently certified.
Infrastructure is where professionalism becomes visible. Trinity's facility, certifications, laboratory, and safety systems are the reason sophisticated customers treat us as a core supplier rather than a spot counterparty.
Stand-Alone Facility
A dedicated, purpose-built site for the handling of magnesium.
ISO 9001 · 14001 · 45001
Independently certified quality, environmental, and occupational health & safety management systems.
In-House Laboratory
Fully equipped to certify incoming and outgoing material against customer specifications.
Radiation Detection
Inbound inspection protocols include radiation screening — part of a broader safety and compliance posture.
Fire Suppression
A state-of-the-art suppression platform designed specifically for magnesium and related materials.
Custom Packaging & Logistics
Formats tailored to downstream handling, with nationwide and international delivery.
Certifications & Documentation
— Technology & Innovation
A patented processing system. Multiple U.S. patents.
Trinity's capabilities are supported by a patented magnesium processing system and internally developed processes refined over more than two decades of operation. The company holds multiple U.S. patents (with additional Canadian patents in process) related to the processing of magnesium scrap — reflecting ongoing investment where it matters: consistency of output, efficiency at scale, and a durable competitive position.
