Driving Efficiency and Innovation in Aluminum Production

JW Aluminum - Project Boilermaker and Strategic Facility Expansion

Southern Industrial Contractors, under the direction of O’Brien & Gere Engineers (OBG), delivered critical infrastructure for JW Aluminum’s $255 million “Project Boilermaker” in Goose Creek, SC. This expansion creates 50 new jobs and integrates a MINO Hot Tandem Mill with a Hazelett AS2000 Twin Belt Caster, enabling the production of 1XXX–6XXX series alloys at 50 metric tons per hour.
Our technical scope included:
➜ Heavy Concrete Structures: Construction of four Mecatherm melting furnace foundations and two holder foundations for the new Melt Building.
➜ Precision Engineering: Installation of the sheet pile cofferdam for the MINO Rolling Mill, supporting continuous rolling of 2000 mm wide strip down to a 2.5 mm gauge.
Completed in early 2020, this project establishes the Mount Holly plant as a benchmark for industrial efficiency and high-capacity flat-rolled aluminum production.
