A History of Quality

The year was 1965. There were hundreds of extruders, but not one who specialized in precision aluminum extrusions. Minalex's founders saw this need and filled it by focusing their company's efforts on precision aluminum extrusions up to a 3 1/2" circle size. Their foresight and the increasing need for precision parts and components in compact, lighter and more reliable products created an industry. Minalex Corporation continues to lead that industry today.

Having a head start was no assurance of success, and challengers have come and gone. At no time in it's 35-year history has Minalex enjoyed a more commanding role in the aluminum extrusion industry than it does today. Minalex is unquestionably the precision extruder by which the industry judges itself - "As good as Minalex", is as good as it gets.

Minalex is #1 in answering the phone, in providing engineering assistance, in holding tight tolerances in an entire run, and in doing everything connected with the production in an extrusion as if it were the most important part of the whole job. It's what Minalex calls Total Quality Performance, and it works - for you.
