So, Who is CHROME?
CHROME may be a shiny new credit union, but our history in the Pittsburgh area goes back decades.
Here’s our story.
We started as Washington Steel Federal Credit Union. We served the hard working employees of the Washington Steel Mill. We were always big on helping our neighbors save, borrow, and live better, so we became Washington Community Federal Credit Union where we began to serve the whole community. Even then, we wanted to do more.
We began by rethinking our roots, our identity, and the impact we could have in the community. We rebranded ourselves as CHROME Federal Credit Union to reflect how we began by serving the employees of Washington Steel Mill and then growing to serve the entire Washington community.
We listened to what our members wanted, learning about how they lived, and simplifying our products. We built CHROME to represent and serve our members. We became one with the community, and our members became one with us.
Today, we look for ways to perform random acts of kindness. We don’t let doing our job get in the way of getting to know you. We work to ensure every interaction you have with CHROME or one of our team is positive and fully meets your expectations. That is our commitment to you.
Beyond the name, the concept of CHROME is what we strive to deliver. CHROME is a metal that can be stretched and pounded, but will never break. Add the element Chromium to steel, and steel becomes even stronger. That’s us. CHROME. Banking that shines.™
