About Company

We offer single-source responsibility for aluminum casting, machining, heat treat, painting and other selective out-sourcing options to provide small, medium and large sized castings serving over 100 customers of many markets across North America.

No order is too small. Larger volumes are considered based on size and process capability. With over 100 years of collective experience in aluminum casting design and process management we have proven agility and expertise to meet our customer’s needs.

History

  • LeRoux Foundry opened its doors in 1937 at the corner of Sherman and Seaway. Napoleon and Fred LeRoux had been in the aluminum casting business and took the risk to start their own company.
  • Ken LeRoux was hired in the late 60’s when iron production was strong, the men then began producing both iron and aluminum castings. As the iron business picked up they decided they could not continue production of both metals under the same roof. In 1976 their nephew Bill and his wife Sue purchased the aluminum casting division, which they named Century Foundry and purchased the first building from Mert Mills.
  • Between 1976 and 1997 Bill and Sue, along with their son Scott saw considerable growth. There were three additions made to plant 1, which went from 6000 sq. ft. to 24,000 sq. ft. With Bill taking a step back in the mid 90’s, Scott saw future growth with more automation, by September 1997 a FBO Sinto automated molding machine and automated sand system were installed.
  • We now had the opportunity to grow and attain business like never before. Scott had taken on more of a sales role and was bringing in business to fill up this new machine. Scott did this quickly and again, there was a lack of floor space, which meant that the air set and permanent mold processes needed to be moved. An opportunity came up directly across from plant 1 and the purchase was made. Plant 1 became cleaning and green sand operations and plant two held air set and permanent mold. The addition of this building gave us 38, 000 sq. ft. of production space.
  • In the late 2000’s Century suffered from the bad economy like every foundry in the country. The struggles made us stronger as a company and since this time have grown faster than ever before. In 2014 we acquired a third facility and now have 77,000 sq. ft. of production area and 65+ employee’s. The new facility holds our permanent mold operation, heat treat oven and machining operation’s. We’re five generations strong under LeRoux ownership, with three generations still working today. (Bill, Scott, Shane)
