Contrarian Metal Resources has been helping architects, panel manufacturers, fabricators and contractors succeed in creating sustainable buildings with high performance flat rolled metals, including stainless steel, titanium and solid zinc alloy since 2001.

We manufacture and distribute high quality decorative metals designed and engineered specifically for architectural applications.  We also provide metallurgical support to architects so that proper specifications for high performance architectural metals can be written.

CMR offers a vast selection of decorative stainless steel, titanium and other metal finishes, all specially engineered for architectural applications.  Our portfolio includes a variety of textures, surface treatments and finishes and represents only best-in-class products – primarily manufactured in the United States as well as imported from across the globe.  In addition, Contrarian Metal Resources also offers custom finish solutions – to assure maximum design flexibility.

Contrarian Metal Resources manufactures and distributes an unrivaled selection of high performance architectural metals including InvariMatte® stainless steel which is being used to create the largest stainless steel roof in the world.  In addition to roofing, the company's products are used in curtain walls, column covers, elevators, and other architectural applications.  Contrarian's unique focus on architecture delivers a product line that is geared toward the uniformity, flatness and proper grade selection required to ensure the appearance and performance of stainless steel and titanium building components. 

Made primarily from recycled material, Contrarian's portfolio of products are designed to last the life of the building without finish deterioration.  Given the intrinsic value of these materials, stainless steel and titanium components are likely to be recycled when the building is eventually torn down.  The result is sustainable design with low maintenance costs and low environmental impact that generates long-term value to the building owner.
