IRVING, Texas, Oct. 26, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Today, CMC (Commercial Metals Company; NYSE: CMC), along with state and local officials and their honored guests, gathered for the dedication of CMC's new micro mill located in Mesa, AZ.

The mill is CMC's third micro mill and will be the first in the world to produce rebar as well as merchant bar quality (MBQ) products through a continuous production process from melting, casting and rolling activities and will be among the most environmentally friendly steelmaking operations in the world. Steel Arizona 2 as the facility has been named, makes CMC a coast-to-coast MBQ manufacturer.
