AB&I Foundry Receives Deep Roots Award in Oakland, California

Oakland’s Metropolitan Chamber of Commerce has awarded AB&I Foundry with the Deep Roots Award in recognition as a longtime steward of the local economy helping build the city’s foundation. The chamber award was presented at its 114th Annual Luncheon on June 26. The event celebrated the businesses, nonprofits, and community members who have collectively contributed to the betterment of "The Town 2019."

“It is important for the community to know that AB&I Foundry is not only a manufacturer of plumbing products, but also plays a tremendous role in giving back to the community,” said Michael Lowe, GM of AB&I. “We are creating jobs and have made our community a better place through a multitude of community programs.”

The company believes in being good stewards to the environment and its community and has spearheaded many programs including a massive neighborhood cleanup in East Oakland. AB&I also has cleaned up the Elmhurst Creek in support of Oakland Creek to Bay Clean and Green Initiative, participated in an Annual Thanksgiving Giveaway with Acts Full Gospel congregation, and provided countless hours of volunteerism at local schools, libraries, and the Alameda Food Bank.

AB&I has been in Oakland, California, since 1906 and is part of the fabric of the community. The company continues to evolve through innovation with state-of-the-art manufacturing processes and environmental conscience manufacturing. The company proudly boasts of being as clean and green as possible, not only meeting but often exceeding, all regulatory standards with manufacturing.

AB&I employs more than 200 team members, with 37 percent residing in Oakland. The economic impact is more than $71 million which is injected back into the local economy through payroll, taxes and local purchases. AB&I Foundry has been an American manufacturer of cast iron soil pipe and fittings for storm and sanitary drain, waste, and vent (DWV) plumbing systems since 1906.
