For 57 years, Comal Iron & Metals has served New Braunfels through faith, hard work, and relationships. This is the story behind the legacy—and the people who built it.

Grace Prep students recycled nearly 19,000 aluminum cans while learning firsthand how stewardship, sustainability, and small actions can create lasting impact in New Braunfels.

Teaching the next generation that metal doesn’t end—it continues. When recycled properly, materials like metal can be reused indefinitely, reducing waste and supporting a more sustainable, local economy.

At Comal Iron & Metals, recycling has never been just about metal. It’s about stewardship, people, and the responsibility we carry as a local, family-owned business. In this post, I share why this work still matters—and why we’re committed to doing it the right way, for today and for the generations to come.
