85th Anniversary for Huron Automatic Screw Company
Huron Automatic Screw Company is celebrating 85 years in the fastener manufacturing industry. In 1931 Huron Automatic Screw Company began as a small operation inside a barn in Port Huron, Michigan. It was started by Keith Brooks and his wife. The company survived the Great Depression thanks to the innovative efforts of the Brooks family and their team’s dedication to growth and continual improvement. This commitment to growth has fueled the company through the decades as it continues to evolve and change to meet the needs of customers throughout the world.
As the years passed, the Brooks welcomed their son into the leadership of the company. In the 1950s, the company focused on growth and moved to a new larger location. The 1960s through the 1980s were a time of modernization and innovation as the company acquired new machines and technology including the implementation of Computer Numerical Controlled (CNC) machines which allowed the company to deliver greater precision, meet exacting tolerances, and work with more challenging materials. Finally, a third generation of the Brooks family is now involved in the company and is guiding Huron Automatic Screw Company towards a continued legacy of expansion and innovation for years to come.
For eighty-five years, Huron Automatic Screw Company has worked with fastener distributors, component manufacturers, and original equipment manufacturers within a variety of industries.
