Alcore Corporation has long been a leader in providing high-quality, lightweight structural core materials to the aerospace, marine, construction, rail and other industries. With a wide variety of structural core materials, Alcore can draw upon its broad engineering expertise along with sophisticated machining and processing to deliver solutions that are totally responsive to customer needs.
The origins of Alcore date back to 1958 when a forerunner company began manufacturing adhesives and honeycomb. Today the new Alcore is part of the M. C. Gill Corporation Group of Companies. This not only provides Alcore with ready access to a full line of Nomex® and Kevlar® honeycomb core products, but also strengthens its worldwide network of customers and agents.
Today Alcore employs a workforce of approximately 130 people, with operations combined in a single location near Baltimore, Maryland. Consolidation allowed for a comprehensive rethinking of the way production was routed through the manufacturing process, with a focus on lean manufacturing techniques to provide the most efficient work flow. This approach has reduced production times, improved quality, and driven out waste.
