>ABC Coke
Acquired by Drummond in the early 1980's as part of the acquisition of the
Alabama By-Products Corporation, ABC Coke is located in Tarrant
Alabama, just north of Birmingham. It is the
leading merchant foundry coke producer in the United States, and is known for its
high-quality product and long-standing customer relationships. The plant has
over 132 ovens, with annual capacity of approximately 730 thousand tons of
saleable coke.
As with all of Drummond's operations, quality control is the key to ABC Coke's
success. Decades of experience, combined with strict in-house lab testing,
have earned ABC Coke the position of standard-bearer for the industry.
Drummond once again has proven that the needs of the customer and the needs of
the environment are not mutually exclusive. ABC Coke runs a continuous program
of modernization and environmental compliance, including several modifications
to control potential air and water pollution. Drummond is the industry leader in
reduced emissions, far exceeding all government requirements by investing in
excess of $50 million for sophisticated environmental control devices. ABC Coke
consistently complies with the required environmental regulations in both air
emissions and water quality.
