In 1902, William Wellman started the Wellman Products Company to furnish high quality supplies to the pattern and foundry industry. One of those products was white metal pattern letters, used to identify foundry castings. Utilizing a special casting process, the company manufactured letters that became recognized as some of the finest white metal letters in the United States. the All-Craft Wellman Products building In 1948, William's son, Samuel Wellman, used the company s pattern letter expertise and his own experience at a former bronze plaque company, to begin manufacturing high quality bronze and aluminum tablets. With a background in writing and professional experience in design, Sam created well-designed plaques that were both aesthetically pleasing and which clearly expressed the thoughts of his customers in bronze and other award plaques. By 1970, Sam had renamed the company All-Craft Wellman, Products, Inc., and had moved the company to a new manufacturing facility in Willoughby, Ohio. By the 1990s, under the guidance of his son, Gil Wellman, the company had expanded to computer engraved plaques and signs, plastic and metal architectural letters, and medical x-ray markers, but still produces the world's finest bronze plaques. All-Craft Wellman continues to serve a large variety of customers. Current customers include such institutions as the General Electric Company, the City of Cleveland, the Cleveland Museum of Art, the Cleveland Orchestra, Baldwin-Wallace College, the Pierpont-Morgan Library, the University of Toledo, and the Federal Court System. Customers include synagogues and churches, educational institutions, hospitals, banks, governmental agencies, contractors, architects and building managers, corporations, historical societies, law firms, and, of course, thousands of individuals. All-Craft has remained small while retaining a high level of manufacturing expertise. Of its current 20 employees, many have remained with the company for over 10, 20 or even 30 years. This small size and accumulated expertise has helped the company retain its most important strength: knowledgeable, personal service. Whether our customer is a large corporation or an individual, each request gets the same detailed, expert attention.
