Our mission
While striving to access the latest in technological advances, Danville Metal prides itself in moving systematically forward to make the most of those advances for the Company, its employees, and its customers. In its progress, Danville Metal has never lost sight of its basic strengths in the areas of forming, machining, and joining technologies.

The best in know-how, machines, and materials have been employed to ensure our objectives for the mutual satisfaction and benefit of our customers, our employees, and our company to whom we are dedicated to produce the best products at competitive prices.
The continued growth of our company is directly related to the skills, interests, pride, and abilities of our people and how well we all work together as a team.
We want to make our employees jobs a source of personal satisfaction in terms of income, job interest, opportunity, advancement, and responsibility. Moreover, we hope that they share the tremendous pride we have in our people, products, and performance.”
Jacob S. Beck (1921 – 1992)
Co-Founder – Danville Metal
That commitment to self-sufficiency led to the acquisition in 1984 and merger in 2017 of Thermo Techniques, a brazing and heat-treating company located adjacent to Danville Metal’s Oakwood Avenue facility.
Danville Metal has made the transition from manufacturing departments to manufacturing cells, which utilize flow lines. These cells enable Danville Metal to shorten delivery cycles and promote higher quality parts while giving all employees a sense of ownership in the finished product.
Into the future expect no startling changes at Danville Metal. Rather, expect to see more of Danville Metal’s consistent evolution of technological capabilities and manufacturing approaches leading to improved service, quality, and lower costs for our customers.
