At Fort Wayne Metals, our story is one of purpose, perseverance, and passion. Founded in 1970 with a vision to redefine the role of materials in advancing healthcare, we’ve spent over five decades innovating wire-based solutions in the medical device industry.
Our journey has been guided by a commitment to improving lives, and today, we’re proud to be a global leader in the manufacture of precision wire, bar, and assemblies used in life-saving devices. What began as a small startup in Fort Wayne, Indiana, has grown into a global company trusted by innovators worldwide. Our evolution is rooted in a relentless pursuit of excellence and quality —whether developing cutting-edge Nitinol materials that meet the demands of advanced surgeries or partnering with valued customers to solve their most complex challenges.
MD&M West has played a pivotal role in our story. It’s been a critical platform where we’ve showcased breakthroughs, forged relationships, and drawn inspiration from the dynamic community of manufacturers and medical innovators. As we reflect on our journey, we are grateful for the trust and partnership of our customers, the dedication of our team, and the opportunity to make a difference. Here’s to the next 50 years of innovation, collaboration, and advancing the boundaries of what’s possible in healthcare.
