Peachtree Metals

What Peachtree Metals does

Peachtree Metals is a specialty stainless steel processor founded in 1976 and headquartered in Duluth, Georgia. The company manufactures and polishes stainless steel edge-conditioned flat bar, and also processes round bar, pipe, and tube products through shearing, slitting, edge conditioning, and proprietary polishing operations. Its core technical capabilities include a proprietary edge conditioning process (shearing or slitting followed by conditioning) and a proprietary polishing process that selects bar free from surface imperfections and runs it through in-house polishing equipment to deliver consistent finish across multiple grit levels (50, 80, 120, 180, 320, 400, 600). Products are certified to exceed ASTM A240 requirements, with multi-standard pre-specification before shipment to serve diverse end uses.

The company's revenue comes from two streams: direct sales of finished stainless steel bar products and toll processing services where customers supply materials for polishing, edge conditioning, or fabrication. It sells primarily to stainless steel distributors and operates a single manufacturing facility in Duluth, Georgia. Go-to-market is sales-led, with direct distributor relationships supported by a customer login portal for account management and online ordering. The company operates with 51-100 employees and presents itself as a one-stop supplier for both standard and custom, tolerance-critical orders, with strong mill relationships as a stated supply chain advantage.

The business is privately held with no disclosed funding, no parent company in formal corporate records, and no M&A activity. Contact data suggests a corporate relationship with Tachen (email domain @tachen.com powers the customer portal, privacy, and staff contacts), though no formal parent-subsidiary structure is documented. The company is domestically focused with United States-only operations and no public pricing or revenue disclosure.
