Blue Arc Metal Specialties

I am very proud of my team and our progress, and glad to be a part of Claremore's growth!

Blue Arc Metal Specialties is making room for its next chapter in Claremore.

Following a recent groundbreaking, construction is set to begin on a $5.5 million expansion at the company’s Claremore Industrial Park campus. The project will add about 60,000 square feet and is expected to create 30 to 40 jobs as Blue Arc responds to increasing customer demand.

For an Oklahoma manufacturer with deep roots in metal fabrication, aviation and defense, the investment is about more than square footage. Blue Arc supports customers including AXH air-coolers and L3Harris Technologies, while its FAA-certified Part 145 repair station allows repaired aircraft components to be approved for return to service.

Founded in 1998, the locally owned, family-operated business has developed capabilities that span precision welding, CNC plasma cutting, aircraft repair and specialized fabrication. Its work reaches aviation, defense, energy and other industrial markets.

The Claremore project also illustrates the value of reinvestment by established Oklahoma companies. Additional production space can create skilled career opportunities, increase the ability to serve customers and reinforce supply-chain connections among manufacturers operating in the same region.

That is particularly important in Claremore, where a growing concentration of fabrication, aerospace and other industrial companies continues to demonstrate the depth of Oklahoma’s manufacturing sector.

🚧 Apparently "groundbreaking" is just a formality at this point... 😄

We've already moved what feels like half of Rogers County to get ready for construction, but it's finally time to make it official!

After more than 21 years in business, we're excited to break ground on Blue Arc Metal Specialties' new 60,000 sq ft expansion! This puts us near a total of 100,000 sq ft.

📅 Thursday, July 30
🕘 9:00 a.m.
📍 3175 N. Cieda Dr.
Claremore, OK 74017

This expansion represents our commitment to our employees, customers, and the future of manufacturing in Oklahoma. It will allow us to continue growing our capabilities in aerospace, defense, energy, and industrial manufacturing while creating opportunities for years to come.

We couldn't have reached this milestone without the support of our employees, customers, suppliers, friends, family, and the Claremore community.

Whether you're a customer, supplier, colleague, fellow manufacturer, or friend, we'd love for you to join us as we celebrate this exciting milestone. We hope to see you there!

Blue Arc is trying to channel the luck of the Irish! Green isn't usually our color but we do love some St. Paddy's day!

I was in West Jefferson, NC and few weeks ago for a family reunion. Much of my mother's family come from those mountains subjected to the crazy flooding. The amount of suffering up there is unbelievable from what I have seen. JT Septic and Eli Spence with Fasco have organized a place to drop off hurricane relief supplies in a trailer at JT Septic. But the trailer leaves tomorrow at noon. They are looking for diapers, formula and water. Blue Arc is answering the call and proud to drop off some supplies. Thanks guys for organizing this. Get over there and donate if you can!
