Deco Products Acquires Mumford Metals in Fountain Inn, South Carolina

Deco Products Expands Miniature Die Casting Capabilities with Acquisition of Mumford Metal Casting Assets

Deco Products Company, LLLP, a leading zinc die casting manufacturer based in Decorah, Iowa, announce on March 15, 2021, the acquisition of the assets of Mumford Metal Casting of South Carolina (MMCSC). This strategic move significantly enhances our miniature die casting capabilities, adding numerous 4-slide miniature zinc die casting machines to our operations. The purchase of MMCSC’s assets expands Deco’s capabilities and capacity. The sale of MMCSC allows Mumford to focus on materials other than zinc in their other facilities.

Deco Products is a privately owned company and has been in operations since 1960. Deco casts all hot chamber zinc alloys in our stand-alone manufacturing facility.  In addition, Deco adds significant value to its castings through machining, assembly and powder coating. With the acquisition of MMCSC, Deco will have over 100 die cast machines ranging from the 4-slide machines through conventional 500 Ton machines.

Why This Acquisition Matters

The purchase of MMCSC’s assets allows us to expand both our capacity and capabilities in miniature die casting. Dave Magner, Director of Sales and Marketing, states:

“The additional equipment for smaller high precision castings will complement Deco’s current established processes for medium and larger castings. The acquisition is also expected to provide more design and manufacturing options for our customers and additional solutions for optimal performance and cost across their entire zinc casting requirements.”

Strategic Growth in Zinc Die Casting

This acquisition aligns with our strategic growth plan to increase our share in the zinc casting market. Chris Storlie, CEO of Deco Products, explains:

“This acquisition will provide positive benefits to all Deco stakeholders from customers, employees, vendors, the local community as well as the owners.”

Seamless Integration for Improved Synergy

“MMCSC equipment and production is being moved to the Decorah, IA facility which will allow for improved synergy with the rest of the zinc casting operation” according to COO, Randy Tangen.
