U.S. Based
Imperial Casting Company, Inc., is a 50+ year–old American gray iron foundry located in Florence, Alabama; one of the few foundries left in this country! In a day when many castings are produced outside the country, we are proud to produce quality gray iron castings, competitively, for American Industry, on demand. We have helped American Manufacturers repatriate their casting needs from other countries, back to the USA.
History
In 1970, after 35 years with Parker – Street Casting Company, in Cleveland, OH, C. A. (Carl) Parasiliti and O.W. (Bill) Street moved to Florence, Alabama and founded Imperial Casting Company, Inc.
The company started with two product lines, Thermocouple Protection Tubes and Chilled Conveyor Wheels – both of which are still produced today.
Brian I. Parasiliti is President and Head of Engineering, serving as the third generation from the Parasiliti family. Eric Street serves as Vice President and represents the fourth generation from the Street family.
These third and fourth generation foundrymen carry on the rich Imperial Casting tradition, and are proud to bring up the next generation of foundrymen working at Imperial today to carry on the decades of iron work.
