About Metco Industries, Inc.
A Brief History of Metco
METCO Industries, Inc. was created on January 1, 1982 in St. Marys, Pennsylvania, the Powder Metal Capital of the World, with one press, a furnace and a tumbler.
Our founders felt there was a need for a quality P/M facility both attentive and flexible to customers' ever changing requirements. Thus METCO began to manufacture and supply quality P/M parts to OEM and other commercial end users of bushings, bearings, gears and other structural components.
Over the past 25 years METCO has grown from a simple one-press shop to a modern 80000 sq. ft. facility employing over 140 people.
The last five to ten years have been an interesting and dynamic period for the entire P/M industry. Powder Metal is the fastest growing segment of production-oriented parts in the world. More and more companies are learning the advantages of using P/M parts not only in the automotive and lawn-garden industries but also those industries that are looking for different, repeatable, quality parts to replace other component manufacturing such as machine or die-cast.
New material and equipment allows the P/M industry to manufacture components in volume to print specification or near shape configuration, therefore, reducing cost and lead-time. We are very proud of our experienced and friendly workforce we have developed over the past 25 years. Our production continues to grow by utilizing our in-line facility to efficiently process P/M parts to the highest quality level possible.
