National Beryllia Information

Location

Haskell, New Jersey

National Beryllia performed a demonstration of its capabilities for production of parts for Y-12 beginning in late 1968, with delivery in March 1969. Additionally, National Beryllia delivered some parts to Union Carbide (Y-12), though the records indicate there was only partial performance for this purchase order, which was terminated in April of 1973.

Between 1984 and 1986 the National Beryllia division of General Ceramics had a series of purchase orders through Martin Marietta, which was operating Y-12 at the time. These contracts involved the shipment of beryllium from Brush Wellman to National Beryllia with Y-12 being the ultimate customer.
