Investing in the Next Generation of Skilled Trades

Weldstar is proud to support agricultural education and the future of skilled trades through our partnership with the Georgetown-Ridge Farm FFA Chapter.

Recently, Weldstar Technical Representative Clyde Bradford from our Danville location had the honor of presenting the Outstanding Agricultural Welding Student Award to Hunter Meeker and Dane Hemker.

FFA is more than agriculture. Founded in 1928, the organization helps students develop leadership skills, personal growth, and career success through hands-on education and real-world experiences. Today, FFA continues to prepare the next generation of leaders, innovators, and skilled professionals who will help shape the future of agriculture, manufacturing, and the trades.

At Weldstar, we believe strong communities are built by investing in young people who are willing to learn, work hard, and develop their skills. Congratulations to Hunter and Dane on this well-deserved recognition, and thank you to the Georgetown-Ridge Farm FFA Chapter for the important work you do developing future industry leaders.

At Weldstar, our Nuclear Division has never been about being the biggest.

It’s about getting it right.

Since 1976, Weldstar has maintained ASME QSC 229 certification and became the first independent welding distributor in the country to earn ASME “N” certification.

That legacy still matters today.

We inventory tested welding filler metals and supply certified materials to the nuclear industry with the documentation, traceability, and quality standards these environments demand.

Because in nuclear, there’s no “close enough.”

Every material matters.
Every cert matters.
Every shipment matters.

Our Nuclear Division is built around:
• ASME and safety-related certified materials
• Full documentation and traceability
• Fast turnaround and ready-to-ship inventory
• Decades of industry experience

Proud to work for a company trusted to deliver when precision matters most.
