ARCTTERN LIMITED LLC · Texas

Connecting industrial metal buyers and sellers — confidentially.

Mission

ARCTTERN exists to match serious industrial demand with serious industrial supply in physical metals — quickly, discreetly, and on terms that leave both sides free to contract and settle with each other.

Counterparty identities stay private until we make the introduction. That relationship is our work product.

History

ARCTTERN LIMITED LLC continues a long commercial practice of integrity, trust, and reliability in complex, cross-border commodity work — the same standards Paul E. Adams built at Lannistark Holdings.

Where Lannistark streamlined difficult, multicultural processes for clients with unique requirements, ARCTTERN focuses that experience on industrial metals: aluminum, copper, steel, stainless, zinc, and related products.

“We are not a fire and forget company. We follow-up and follow-through; and, our clients win.” — Paul E. Adams, President & CEO
